Topic: Toast Scrolls page back to top (repost after accidental delete)

C-Contract priority asked 3 years ago


Expected behavior

When a toast is called if the page is scrolled down the toast shows at the top of the visible screen as a floating element without scrolling the page.

Actual behavior

When a toast is called if the page is scrolled down the toast shows at the top of the page and force scrolls the page back to the top. One of my pages performs currently the reset scroll the page. The angular docs for toast do not scroll the page.

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

I do see anything in my CSS or global toast controls that would this behavior happen. Also nothing obvious to me in my component-specific toast calls or component-specific scss that is different between the working page and the rest.

Global Toast Options:

ToastModule.forRoot({
  opacity: 1,
  timeOut: 0,
  extendedTimeOut: 0,
  progressBar: true,
  closeButton: true,
}),

Global Toast SCSS:

#toast-container > mdb-toast-component {
max-width: 600px;
width: auto;
top: 120px;  }

The last post I had posted yesterday I accidentally deleted. That post had a response asking for a page's HTML and ts code so I have added those to this report.

@Zachary Bell Could you please prepare a simple example that we will be able to test on our end? The code you added contains many references to variables/services that we do not have access to. It would take a long time to adjust this and we still won't be sure if we recreated the view from your application correctly.

No I can't because any simple page I create works correctly. I have tried a few times and I always works correctly where as almost no other page in our site works correctly


Arkadiusz Idzikowski staff commented 3 years ago

@Zachary Bell I added that to our to-do list and we will try to reproduce the problem on our end. However, I'm afraid it won't be easy to recreate this problem if it only occurs in a configuration specific to your application.
