Description
Describe the bug
When implementing expandable rows in a virtualized table, toggling an expandable row will immediately cause the table to scroll to top regardless of where the the current scroll offset is.
Your minimal, reproducible example
https://stackblitz.com/edit/tanstack-virtual-xdmecx?file=src%2FApp.svelte
Steps to reproduce
- Scroll down table.
- Toggle on/off an expandable row.
- Table will immediately scroll to top.
Expected behavior
I expect to be able to toggle an expandable row and still be able to see it in it's current scroll position. Instead, It scrolls all the way to the top.

Research direction
Reproduce the behavior using the linked StackBlitz example, starting with src/App.svelte and the virtualized table's row-expansion handling. Verify that toggling an expanded row after scrolling preserves the current scroll position rather than returning to the top, and add or update a regression test if the repository provides one.
