Can I stop tabs from scrolling with vertical swipes?  en

I am trying to create a page with a text object that will go from tab to tab by swiping left and right on a tablet or iphone.  The good news is that it does that well.  Unfortunately, it also responds to up and down swipes (up mimicks right and down mimicks left).   I want to be able to scroll up and down on the contents of each tab, but the up and down swipes lead to other tabs.  

Is there a setting somewhere to stop the up and down swipes from going from tab to tab?  I found a workaround by embedding an iframe with the tab contents in it but that's an extra several steps.

Thank you Paul - I will follow that post.  I just added this to that string (fyi)...

I have the same exact issue Tom describes. I'll follow this post to stay in the loop. Tom, in the meantime, I found a workaround, but it is not elegant. First I create a hidden page with the content I want in the tabs. Then I upload. Then... In the body of the tabs I inserted html that embeds an iframe with the url of the hidden page. When the user touches on that embedded frame, it scrolls up and down with up and down swipes. I did need to adjust the page properties of the hidden page so that the width fits well inside the tab. Too wide and it looks funny, too thin and it leaves big margins that are suceptible to the up/down acting like right/left. Hope this helps. Looking forward to a real fix Website X5!
