Description
Description
When a node which is included in a list that specifies it in it's stickyHeaderIndices is measured via it's ref using measure or measureInWindow, the y and pageY values reflect the node's original coordinates and do not account for it's sticky positioning.
Steps to reproduce
- Scroll a list until the node(s) in
stickyHeaderIndicesbecome sticky - Measure the sticky node via it's ref
Expected:
Coordinates reflect it's current, sticky position on the screen or in the viewport, like how it works on the legacy architecture.
Actual:
Coordinates reflect it's original positioning, not accounting for it's sticky position, so once the element becomes sticky due to scroll the y values will be negative.

Research direction
Start by running the mandatory Snack reproducer on iOS and comparing measurements before and after a node in stickyHeaderIndices becomes sticky. Investigate the Fabric measurement behavior for measure and measureInWindow, using the legacy architecture's result as the expected reference. Done means the reported y and pageY coordinates reflect the node's current sticky position rather than its original position.
