Scrollbar is not restored to "top" position after changing the query string

[paulinasd]

I use typeahead.js library with height (css) on suggestions container added, in order to make list scrollable. The height of suggestions container is never changing, because my custom function that generates suggestion list, returns all source items, with the ones, matching the query, rendered on top of list.

Scrollbar on suggestions container is not restored after these steps:

• enter search query
• scroll down to the last item and select it
• change query to get suggestion list again

Result: scrollbar is on the bottom of container, the same position it was set after entering the first query.

Having the same issue, and because of #1141 it can not be worked around easily. This can also be reproduced on the example pages.

Even though this is an old issue, if for any reason anybody is stuck on an old version of typeahead, this is what I did to solve the problem in my case with typeahead 0.9.3:

I patched typeahead.js. In function 'renderSuggestions' in class 'DropdownView' insert the following:

this._ensureVisibility(this.$menu.find(".tt-suggestion").first());

after the line

$dataset.show().find(".tt-suggestions").html(fragment);

At least that solved it for me. Happy patching!
