My menu can contain a lot of section (due to one long full page content), so I have a X scrollbar on my menu.
💡How could I scroll automatically on the correct menu entry when scrollspy highlight it.
for exemple if you scroll to section 18/19, we cannot see the highlighted item in the menu 😕
Finally, first I've changed the code of bootstrap.js to add a scrollIntoView action after the css "activation". but this is not the right way to do things. After I've discovered the bootstrap events
then I've used a jquery selector on all my menu elements that scrollspy activate and do my scroll on this element:
$(document).ready(function () {
console.log("ready!");
$('.navbar-nav li').on('activate.bs.scrollspy', function (e) {
e.target.scrollIntoView();
}
);
});body {
position: relative;
scroll-behavior: smooth;
}
