scroll_to specific date on update

[benjivm]

Hey there, this is a great lib, thanks for it. I am attempting to do something like the following:

function onScrollToDate(date) {
    gantt.update_options({
        scroll_to: date,
    });
}

Where date is a string formatted like 2025-01-01, a date within the chart's date range. However, this is not scrolling to the date specified, is this expected?

I am using this library in a Vue component, and have tried using different instantiation method with no luck.

Hi,

Could you share a video of your problem? This doesn't happen for me?

Are you sure your date format is set correctly?

@safwansamsudeen This might be related; when I have initial_padding set to true and scroll_to to e.g. today (or anything really, date string whatnot), it is not scrolling to that place (on init). Turning initial_padding off makes it scroll to today.
