 - `getWidthFrom`: Selector of element referenced to set fixed width of "sticky" element.
 - `widthFromWrapper`: boolean determining whether width of the "sticky" element should be updated to match the wrapper's width. Wrapper is a placeholder for "sticky" element while it is fixed (out of static elements flow), and it's width depends on the context and CSS rules.
 - `responsiveWidth`: boolean determining whether widths will be recalculated on window resize (using getWidthfrom).
+- `followHorizontalScroll`: Boolean telling to sticked element to follow horizontal scrollbar movement instead of staying fixed
 
 ## Methods
 
 - `sticky(options)`: Initializer. `options` is optional.
 - `sticky('update')`: Recalculates the element's position.
- 
+
 ## Events
 
 - `sticky-start`: When the element becomes sticky.
