Props

Name Type Required Default Description
selector String Any CSS selector to specify which elements in children to attach the scrollspy to.
children React Node Standard child passthrough. This is where it watches for scroll events.
detectEnd Boolean true If true, the last index will be highlighted when scrolled to the bottom. If false, then when scrolled to the bottom, current will return whichever container is currently at threshold.
nav React Node Render prop that returns current index in view and all positions of items.
threshold String "top" Trigger point at which current watches. Accepts "top", "center", or "bottom" (if a specific threshold is needed, simply add padding to the top or bottom of a container).
