How to set the initial index (position) for the CdkVirtualScrollViewport in Angular 7










3














I need the inital position of the cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport to be other than the first element / item of the list.



Now I found the scrollToIndex and scrollTo methods, but I only can get them to work when using it in the ngAfterViewChecked, which feels off.



  1. Can someone confirm that the using those methods in the ngAfterViewChecked is the right way of doing things?

  2. If not, show an alternative method / technique?




 @ViewChild(CdkVirtualScrollViewport) cdkVirtualScrollViewport: CdkVirtualScrollViewport;
numbers: number = ;

constructor()
for (let index = 0; index < 10000; index++)
this.numbers.push(index);



ngAfterViewChecked()
this.cdkVirtualScrollViewport.scrollToIndex(2000);

 <ul class="list">
<cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport style="height:264px" itemSize="88">
<ng-container *cdkVirtualFor="let n of numbers">
<li style="height:88px"> n </li>
</ng-container>
</cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport>
</ul>

          I have the same problem, I have a not so elegant solution



          contentCheck = 0

          ngAfterViewChecked()
          if (this.contentCheck < 3)
          this. cdkVirtualScrollViewport.scrollToIndex(4000);
          this.contentCheck++;




          After 3 checks the scrollToIndex works.
