Using a <Content /> component renders a ScrollView but I can't seem to access that ScrollView in order to call functions like scrollTo(0).
Maybe I'm missing something?
Content now renders KeyboardAwareScrollView instead of RN ScrollView. Use this instead of scrollTo(0). We'll soon add this to our docs.

please add ._scrollview to your ref.
@SupriyaKalghatgi needs to be documented.
I just run to the issue when I needed to scroll the <Content> contents...
this._content._scrollview.scrollToPosition(0, 0, false); didn't work with error that _scrollview is undefined (but I can see it in the source code of <Content> component on git)...
this._content._root.scrollToPosition(0, 0, false); is working as expected...
Hi @soukupl I hope you can help me..
I tried both this._content._scrollview.scrollToPosition(0, 0, false); and this._content._root.scrollToPosition(0, 0, false); but in my situation it always returns undefined.
I would like to use it inside the FAB:
[...]
scrollTop() {
this._content._scrollview.scrollToPosition(0, 0, true);
}
render() {
return (
<Container`` style={styles.container}>
<Fab
direction="up"
position="bottomRight"
style={{ backgroundColor: '#005f99' }}
>
<Button onPress={this.scrollTop()}>
<Icon name="arrow-up" />
</Button>
</Fab>
<GlobalHeader backScreen={'News'} />
<Content padder ref={c => (this.component = c)}>
[All my contents etc..]
Thank you so much!
Hi @nobady90,
I don't remember why I did that, but since I moved my content loading logic to React's Context, I'm using this line of code to scroll back to top after content update...
setTimeout(() => {
global.appContent._root.scrollToPosition(0, 0, false);
}, 50);
And in my main App.js, I have this REF set on the main content wrapper:
<Content ref={c => { global.appContent = c; }}>
...
</Content>
So... global.appContent is REF (stored in global space) to the main wrapper and I'm asking the <Content> component to scroll to 0,0 (without animation - false).
The <Content> is from native-base :)
@soukupl That worked like charm ! Thanks so much. That's the simplest solution that worked and I tried quite a few things.
