Using the latest version of TestComplete, there seems to be an issue with scrolling. When using either Click() or ClickButton(), the scrolling doesn’t seem to scroll properly and is not consistent. When using the browsers Dev Tools, scrolling is always fast and consistent.

The workaround is to use the buttons method scrollIntoView() then perform the click action.

I also suggest you open a ticket via https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/message/ as Click() and ClickButton() methods should ideally scroll the button into view before performing a click action.
