What`s new?

v1.5.0

• The speedInfluenceFactor option was added. This factor controls the influence of the drag speed on the rotation angle. This is useful to control the rotation angle for different display resolutions (DPI).
• The maxRotationAngleDeg option was added. It controls the same behaviour as the rotationAngleDeg option and will replace it in future releases.
• swingdrag containers will always be topmost during dragging.

Install

npm install swingdrag
