This is about making sure the journalResume on a book goes back to the same vscroll position on the book.

[Brahmanathaswami]

It does not work! It works on desktop, BUT in Simulator!

on Desktop we get a view that won't scroll

but on Simulator we DO GET scroll? But at the beginning the over the book!
