Description

We are encountering an issue where keyboard navigation using tab and arrow keys does not fully scroll the sheet to the end cell when a sticky action column is implemented.

Details:
We have implemented a sticky action column using the CSS property position: sticky; right: 0;.
We have also attempted alternative CSS properties like position: fixed and position: absolute, as well as the jss_frozen class, but none of them resolve the scrolling issue.

We have searched the documentation and GitHub issues for related problems and event listeners for scrolling behavior, but haven't found any solutions.

Please refer to the video attached.

Reached the JSpreadsheet team and they have suggested to create a feature request for the same.

"It is not possible to stick a column to the right, this feature is not available. But, you can send a feature request on github, that can be consider in the future."

Research direction

Start by reproducing keyboard navigation with a right-sticky action column using the attached video as reference, then identify the relevant navigation and scrolling behavior; done means tab and arrow navigation scroll fully to the end cell while the action column remains sticky.
