Hi everyone

I have a long scrolling panel containing a series of list items. On clicking a list item it transitions to another page showing an image. When the back button is pressed on the image page it goes back to the scrolling panel but it resets the position back to the top of the list. This means that you have to scroll back to the position you where at.

Is there a way of stopping the automatic scroll reset so that the scroll panel maintains its last position?

Thanks for any help

Hi Paul,

We have received this same feedback a few days ago and I have already opened a enhancement bug for consideration in future versions.

Ok thanks for getting back to me. Just for information is it iscroll 4 you use to implement the scroller in mobione?

Thanks

Paul

@Paul,

Yes, iscroll4 is used for the panel’s scroller implementation.

Hi guys sorry to bring this topic up again but my app has come back from being tested by the users and the feedback is that they really don’t like the scroll reset.

Is there a way I can do a hack to prevent the scroll reset?

thanks

Hi Paul,

Discussing it with dev team, but I’m afraid that it won’t be a easy way to achieve it.

Could this be done with a variable and manually place the scroll panel back to where it was?

[paulD]

I did think of that, but the problem is that when the page reloads it must fire a function to reset the scroller which overwrites any variable or function from the previous page or back button.

[Brandon]

What about keeping the value in local storage?

[paulD]

Not sure how to do that? I will have a look and read up about it.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Paul

@all

Please note we are currently testing an enhancement that may improve your issues with a panel’s scroll position reset when revisiting the panel’s screen from other screens in your app. We will post a follow up when we have the solution available for early testing.

How it works that a screen that is visited from either a Back button, a GoBack action or phoneui.goBack() javascript function call will not have its scrolling panel’s reset. All screens access via logical forward navigation will be reset as they are now.

Thats great news Wayne thanks for the follow up.

Hi Paul,

Please see this dev build available, that includes the function you need to avoid the reset in your lists.
