Scroll resets before next page renders, causing flash

[thomasmarr]

Version:

• @inertiajs/react version: 2.0.0-beta-3 and 1.0.0

Describe the problem:

When navigating from one page to another, just before the next page appears, the initial page scroll resets to the top of the page. This causes a janky flash just before the next page renders.

This is already described in issue #1802 but that issue is closed as fixed, and I am unsure whether my comment there has been noticed, so I am opening a new issue.

Steps to reproduce:

This is described in #1802 :

Create a page that causes the browser viewport to scroll
Include a link to another page
Click that link while scrolled down, and observe a flash of scroll-to-top before the transition

This bug is about the React adapter, but the Vue one has a similar problem, in which the page jumps to the top before a page transition (e.g. when using a persistent layout with a <Transition> element that wraps the main <slot />).

I wonder if I should open a separate bug for this 🤔
