Currently we have the ability to shut off autoSwitchToCompact but it would be nice if there is another option that allows a user to scroll the entire pivot including the left side columns when the view is not big enough.
I have attached a screenshot. In this scenario when the only thing on a users screen are the row values, I'd expect to be able to scroll to the right to be able to see the values still rather than preventing scrolling. Essentially when the values disappear, making the entire pivot scroll rather than just the values part of the pivot

Hello, Brian!
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Kindly note that our classic view is designed to have a frozen area with members, and then a scrollable area with values, so users always know which members they're analyzing.
If you want a horizontal scroll for both frozen area and values area, we suggest increasing the width of the component's container and adding a horizontal scroll to it. Here is the JSFiddle to illustrate the idea: https://jsfiddle.net/flexmonster/acwj9dsn/.
We have also noticed on the provided screenshot that the column width is larger than the size of the data inside, so just in case, here is the guide about managing column width in Flexmonster: https://www.flexmonster.com/doc/resizing-rows-and-columns/.
Hope you will find our answer helpful.
Kind regards,
Solomiia

When I try this it only works if some of the values are shown. If its only the frozen area, I am unable to scroll at all.

that was just a contrived example to illustrate what I was talking about.

Hello, Brian!
Thank you for your quick response.
Our team agrees that being able to scroll the entire grid with frozen area would be a useful feature, and has added your request to our Customers' Wishlist.
For now, as a workaround, we suggest the above-mentioned approach of increasing container width.
Please note that the frozen area has its own scroll event handlers, so scrolling the whole grid would work better when not hovering over the frozen area. We recommend wrapping Flexmonster component in an additional <div> container, so the horizontal scroll would be visible right under the grid for better access: https://jsfiddle.net/flexmonster/mcx5jzge/.
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Solomiia
