Resetting scroll position in a section

[jannemecek]

We're currently looking to add functionality that restores the offset of each section to 0 after a section disappears from screen. Is there a preferred way you imagined for handling this while designing the library or is this something considered to be out of scope? As far as I can see, there's no way to do this with the public API of the library.

I'll fork the library and add the necessary functionality but I was wondering if there's any interest in adding this? If so, I could package a PR for you to check out.

Hi! Thanks for reaching out.

Feel free to fork it and add the functionality - as you've noted there's no public API for that as of right now. I would say a good place to add it is as a property on JEKScrollViewConfiguration, something like BOOL resetsContentOffsetWhenAppearing. Then you can check that property here and set the offset to 0 if it is YES. This allows you to add it to the public API without changing any interfaces, by either setting the default configuration or returning a custom one per section.

I'd appreciate a PR if you add it 😊

@jannemecek Actually, I'm sorry. It is supported, if you use - (void)setHorizontalOffset:(CGFloat)offset forSectionAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index animated:(BOOL)animated; on the layout object itself. You can do this jus before a section is appearing!

I don't see this method. Is this in the latest release?

I see it mentioned in #18 but that hasn't been merged yet

Oh right. I looked at local checkout of that. Sorry! But yeah, adding that one should solve it. It should be enough to copy L285-305 of that PR and expose it in the header I think.
