The problem exists only on scrollIntoViewOptions with block "start", "end" will working. I see no workaround, it always results in a complete layout desaster. My grid has position "relative", position "absolute" will also not working. All elements above the grid are not scrollable. In the example images the grid is the area from the menu line to the footer (all palette windows).
And: After the call the deskop is visible in the browser page window (two lines at the bottom). :-o

mamekudz@Thanks for filing the issue...

@Reporter : As per comment #0 tried to create a file and also observed the page " https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_element_scrollintoview.asp " but we are not sure. It would be really helpful if a sample URL/Test file is provided, so that we can investigate the issue further.

Thanks.!

Thank you for your answer.

My web application is very complex and currently only running on my developement system, but I have save an offline file of the generated page you can download: 

http://www.oxyd.games/OxydIntoViewTest.zip 

After unzipping, you can load it offline (be sure that dev console is offline to prevent debugging while loading), then open dev console and enter:

document.getElementById("lshcf_0_10").scrollIntoView(true); <= this will show you the bug.

document.getElementById("lshcf_0_10").scrollIntoView(false); <= this works

In my orignial code I use

.scrollIntoView({block:"start",behavior:"smooth"}); <= not working

.scrollIntoView({block:"end",behavior:"smooth"}); <= my current workaround

Why there is only a black screen in your screencast?

...perhaps you have to disable javascript debugger in developer console settings before loading the file.

This offline file is only a snapshot of a web application which not included all javascript files, so the resulting javascript errors will prevent building the dom. The included dom is needed to show you the bug.

Ok, I think I have found the problem: Your unzipper does not handle some characters in the correct way. In your screencast the files and folders are wrong named, it have to be named "Oxyd®" and "Oxxd®_files".

Please download the zip file again, I have removed all the problematic characters from the filenames and file contents.

And: In your screencast I can see that javascript debugging is NOT disabled. There are already debugging messages in your console: "Uncaught ReferenceError. Menu is not defined". The best way is to open a new tab, open dev console, switch off js debugging and then load the offline file to the open tab.

Thank you for your patience.

mamekudz@ Thanks for the feedback...

As per comment #12, Tried to reproduce the issue on reported chrome 69.0.3497.100 using Windows 7 and 10. Still we are getting blank screen and errors on Dev tools (same as comment #11 and comment #7). Hence requesting Blink>Scroll team look into it and adding TE-NeedsTriageHelp label to it.

Thanks..!

mamekudz@: I can't reproduce the issue based on your link above, either with or without Javascript disabled. The page looks correct to me (at least not scrolled off screen)

Can you provide a reduced test case that reproduces the issue?

Pinng, mamekudz@ - can you please provide a reduced test case or help me reproduce on the link you gave. If we cannot reproduce the issue this isn't actionable and we'll have to close the bug unfortunately.

I just test it at version 70.0.3538.77, the bug is still present. I used the link. I don't understand what is going wrong so you can't reproduce the bug.

But I noticed that sometimes scrollIntoView have absolute no effect in this test case.

Ok, it is not easy, but I will look for a reduce test, but it will take some time.

Hi,

I am sorry, but I did not succeed to create a simple test which reproduce the problem. Anyway there is a bug in "ScrollIntoView", also if I set a property "position:fixed" to the grid, it will change the position. I will have a look at this bug in the future and if I find any conditions which will trigger this bug then I will reopen this ticket.

Thanks and regards
Meinolf
