How to call scrollIntoView on an element in angular 2+

In Angular 2+ applications, you can use ElementRef to get a reference to a DOM element and then call scrollIntoView() on it to scroll the element into view. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Import ElementRef: First, import ElementRef from @angular/core.

  2. Access the DOM Element: Use ElementRef to access the DOM element you want to scroll into view.

  3. Call scrollIntoView(): Call the scrollIntoView() method on the DOM element reference.

Here's an example:

import { Component, ElementRef, ViewChild } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-your-component', templateUrl: './your-component.component.html', styleUrls: ['./your-component.component.css'] }) export class YourComponent { @ViewChild('elementToScroll') elementToScroll: ElementRef; scrollToElement() { this.elementToScroll.nativeElement.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'start', inline: 'nearest' }); } }

In your template (your-component.component.html), assign a template reference variable to the element you want to scroll into view:

<button (click)="scrollToElement()">Scroll to Element</button> <div #elementToScroll> <!-- Element you want to scroll into view --> </div>

In this example:

  • We use ViewChild to get a reference to the element with the template reference variable #elementToScroll.
  • We define a method scrollToElement() that gets called when a button is clicked. Inside this method, we call scrollIntoView() on the native element of elementToScroll.
  • The scrollIntoView() method is called with options ({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'start', inline: 'nearest' }) to specify the scrolling behavior.

Ensure that the ViewChild decorator is imported from @angular/core and that the elementToScroll template reference variable is used on the element you want to scroll to.
