# Roadmap
This is a summary for thenew fatures of the major releases and a collection of ideas.
This list indicates only the current intention and can be changed.
## v8
Planned to November/December 2020

- Remove `lv_page` and support scrolling on `lv_obj`
- Support "elastic" scrolling when scrolled in
- Support scroll chaining among any objects types (not only `lv_pages`s)
- Remove `lv_drag`. Similar effect can be achieved by setting the position in `LV_EVENT_PRESSING`

- Already working
