Year of the Rat with Scroll Panel
Demo: https://go.aws/2SR1G0e
Every year at the end of January I do a Lunar New Year demo. I wanted to find a new way to allow users to scroll through 70+ years to find their birth year. Last year (Year of the Pig) I used a text variable, but I didn't like how the keyboard would pop up on a mobile device to type in the birth year, so for 2020 I created a scroll panel with buttons to find your year. If anyone has another idea how to do this please let me know and I'll try it next year for Year of the Ox. :) This is also cross posted in #263 because I'm not sick of Classic Blue and the Snorkel/Desert Twilight palettes yet. I was born in Year of the Rat, so this is my year! Let's all hope for a better April-December 2020.

Cool example to show how interactive objects can be used in scrolling panels. And I agree, the Classic Blue is a keeper.
- Yep, this year's palette has some staying power, I think. I was fatigued with Ultra Violet and Living Coral after a couple months. I have another idea for a scroll panel that I'll work on--I feel like doing something normal and productive. Heading out this weekend for some Sedona-style "social distancing" on the red rocks.
- What's the weather like up there? It's non-stop rain here in Phoenix.
- Beautiful today and busier than I expected. All the trailhead parking lots are packed. I hear we are getting snow later this week. I haven't really ventured out much but I hope to get out on the rocks tomorrow.
