Allow a ref to be attached to the ConversationList #83

Closed j-krl closed 1 year ago

j-krl commented 1 year ago

It would be great if I could attach a ref to the ConversationList in the same way I can to the MessageList. I'd like to be able to scroll around the ConversationList because the order of the list changes based most recent activity, and I want my currently active conversation to always be in view.

I figured this out myself by using document.getElementById('<id>').scrollIntoView(), as calculating the scroll position from the the parent would be much more difficult. However, I could still foresee uses of having the ref on the parent for scrolling to top in certain circumstances. Not really an issue for me anymore though.
