ScrollView's 'contentOffset' does not use a "scrolling" effect when reaching the target "Y".

[afilp]

I am using the contentOffest prop in ScrollView (on latest React Native, 0.20), in order to show different sections of the ScrollView content depending on which button the user presses.

The shifting works, no problem with that, but it goes to the related "Y" instantly, not with the same "scrolling" effect it would use when we scroll with the finger.

Can this be fixed somehow?

Thanks.

You want to search for "animate scrolling javascript" or something like that. StackOverflow would be a great place for this question if you are unable to find an answer

You can just use scrollTo - https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/Libraries/Components/ScrollView/ScrollView.js#L365-L387

It would be nice to add this to our docs :)
