[SOLVED] V3 scroll position lost after multiple navigation

I find that scroll position is lost after navigation to more than two different pages.

Is there a way to fix this? I am using stacked pages, and the flow is as follow:

  1. Start from /home/ and scroll
  2. Go to /page1/ : this.$f7.router.navigate("/page1/");
  3. Scroll on /page1/, go back home : this.$f7.router.back("/home/"); (/home/ scroll is restored successfully)
  4. Go back to /page1/ : this.$f7.router.navigate("/page1/"); (/page1/ scroll is restored successfully)
  5. Go to /home/ : this.$f7.router.back("/home/"); (/home/ scroll is restored successfully)
  6. Go to /page2/ : this.$f7.router.navigate("/page2/");
  7. Go to /home/ : this.$f7.router.back("/home/"); (/home/ scroll is restored successfully)
  8. Go back to /page1/ this.$f7.router.navigate("/page1/"); (/page1/ scroll has been reset!)

Why is the scroll of /page1/ reset in step 8 and how can I remedy this?

Because when page gone to stack (deeper than 3rd level in navigation) it became display: none so browser apparently resets its scroll position. I guess you use Vue or React, so you can save and restore page’s scroll in your component within pageBeforeOut (save scroll) and pageBeforeIn (restore scroll) events

Really appreciate your help, saved me from insanity! All working nicely now. You guessed correctly - I am using Vue… Out of curiosity, do you think that router.scrollHistory should take care of these sorts of cases?

Anyway, for others who are stuck on this, here is the code I used to get it working (remember to create a savedScrollTop variable):

pageBeforeIn(e) {
	// restore scrollTop
	this.$$(e.currentTarget).find('.page-content').scrollTop(this.savedScrollTop);
},
pageBeforeOut(e) {
	// save scrollTop
	this.savedScrollTop = this.$$(e.currentTarget).find('.page-content').scrollTop(); 
},
