There was an attempt to perform an action at a point, which is beyond the screen

Getting the above issue which I have seen has been seen before but those resolutions are not working for me.

It an AngularJS web app. Most objects in the page only support 'click' or 'keys'

 

This means things like 'scrolltoview/scrolltoviewifneeded' do not work and I get 'this object does not support this'.

 

Any ideas how I can get the page to scroll because if I get it to select a button that is off the visible view I get the error message "There was an attempt to perform an action at a point, which is beyond the screen"

    Hi,

     

    > things like 'scrolltoview/scrolltoviewifneeded

    The method is called scrollIntoView(true/false) and is supported by all browsers.

      If I use scrollintoview I get the message that it is not supported by the object.

      I presumed this is because when I spy the object it only supports methods 'click' and 'keys'?

       

      Am I missing something?

        Case sensitivity...  depending upon your scripting language, you HAVE to reference the method as scrollIntoView.
