lynx-ui-scroll-view SKILL

ScrollView is a general-purpose scroll container used to display content that exceeds the viewport in either vertical or horizontal direction. For massive datasets, prefer List or FeedList to ensure performance.

1. Core Capabilities

• Vertical and Horizontal Scrolling: Supports vertical (scrollOrientation = 'vertical') and horizontal (scrollOrientation = 'horizontal') scrolling.
• Native Scroll Architecture: enableNewArch defaults to true on Lynx SDK 4.3 and newer and to false on earlier versions. The new architecture uses native bounces across Android, iOS, and Harmony; set the prop explicitly to override the SDK-based default.
• BounceableOptions: Supports edge rubber-band and bounce effects, configurable via:
• enableBounces: enable/disable edge bounce
• singleSidedBounce: select bounce side ('upper' | 'lower' | 'both')
• alwaysBouncing: allow bouncing even when content does not exceed the viewport
• startBounceTriggerDistance / endBounceTriggerDistance: threshold distance to trigger onScrollToBounces
• onScrollToBounces(info): callback when reaching upper/lower edge (info.direction is 'upper' | 'lower')
• enableBounceEventInFling: trigger bounce events during inertial fling
• validAnimationVersion: compatibility switch to use setTimeout instead of requestAnimationFrame on lower Lynx versions

Minimal Usable Example

import { ScrollView } from '@lynx-js/lynx-ui'
function BasicScrollView() {
  return (
    <ScrollView
      scrollOrientation='vertical'
      style={{ height: '300px', width: '100%' }}
    >
      <view style={{ height: '800px', background: 'lightgray' }}>
        <text>Very long content...</text>
      </view>
    </ScrollView>
  )
}

Wrapper Usage (Flex Layout)

When you need flex layout, add a wrapper as the first child of ScrollView, and apply flex styles on that wrapper:

Also make sure the direct child of ScrollView is larger than the ScrollView viewport on the scrolling axis. Otherwise, the content does not overflow and the ScrollView will not scroll.

import { ScrollView } from '@lynx-js/lynx-ui'
function FlexWrapperExample() {
  return (
    <ScrollView scrollOrientation='vertical' style={{ height: '240px' }}>
      {/* 第一层：wrapper view（设置 flex） */}
      <view style={{ display: 'flex', flexDirection: 'row', gap: '8px' }}>
        <view
          className='card'
          style={{ width: '100px', height: '100px', background: 'skyblue' }}
        />
        <view
          className='card'
          style={{ width: '100px', height: '100px', background: 'salmon' }}
        />
        <view
          className='card'
          style={{ width: '100px', height: '100px', background: 'khaki' }}
        />
      </view>
    </ScrollView>
  )
}

Recommended Prompt Formula

Scenario Description + Scroll Configuration (direction, events) + Content and Style

Example Prompt:

• "Create a vertically scrollable ScrollView with a height of 400px. The content within it has a total height of 1000px."
• "Implement a ScrollView that triggers a ‘load more’ function when scrolled to the bottom, using onScrollToLower."
• "Create a ScrollView and a ‘Back to Top’ button. When the button is clicked, smoothly scroll back to the top."

3. Use Cases & Best Practices

Vertical Scrolling

import { ScrollView } from '@lynx-js/lynx-ui'
function VerticalScrollView() {
  return (
    <ScrollView scrollY={true} style={{ height: '200px' }}>
      <view style={{ height: '500px' }}>
        {/* ... Long content ... */}
      </view>
    </ScrollView>
  )
}

Horizontal Scrolling

import { ScrollView } from '@lynx-js/lynx-ui'
function HorizontalScrollView() {
  return (
    <ScrollView scrollOrientation='horizontal' style={{ width: '100%' }}>
      <view style={{ flexDirection: 'row' }}>
        {[...Array(10)].map((_, i) => <view key={i} className='card' />)}
      </view>
    </ScrollView>
  )
}

Listening for Scroll to Bottom (Load More)

import { ScrollView } from '@lynx-js/lynx-ui'
function LoadMoreScrollView() {
  const loadMore = () => {
    console.log('Reached the bottom, loading more data...')
  }
  return (
    <ScrollView
      scrollY={true}
      style={{ height: '300px' }}
      onScrollToLower={loadMore}
      lower-threshold='50'
    >
      {/* ... list content ... */}
    </ScrollView>
  )
}

4. FAQ

Q: Why can't my `ScrollView` scroll?

A: ScrollView needs a determined boundary. Set a fixed size (e.g., height: '300px') or place it in a flex container and use flex: 1. Also ensure the direct child of ScrollView is larger than the viewport on the scrolling axis. For example, a vertical ScrollView with height: '300px' needs a direct child taller than 300px; otherwise it will not scroll.

Q: `ScrollView` inside `Popup` causes drag conflicts?

A: Pass the main-thread:gesture object provided by Popup to ScrollView's main-thread:gesture for proper gesture arbitration.

Q: Long lists stutter with `ScrollView` + `.map()`?

A: Use List or FeedList for large datasets; they provide virtualization and view reuse. ScrollView suits limited content scenarios.

**Q: How to implement “Back to Top”?

A: Maintain a scroll position state and programmatically set scroll-top (or use native APIs) on interaction.

Q: How to use flex layout inside `ScrollView`?

A: The first-level direct child of ScrollView is constrained to display: linear. If you need flex, add a wrapper view as the first child and apply all flex-related styles to that wrapper.

5. Sub components

ScrollView is a container component. Its direct child elements are the scrollable content. There are no named child components.
