Scroll a QWebengineView

[minnit_s]

Hello everyone,

i try to scroll a QWebengine view from the c++ code, i used to do this with qwebview without a problem but i can't find a way to do it with webengine.

Is there a way to do this?

Thx.

Which class manage scrolling in QWebengineview? I try so send a qwheelevent to the widget and nothing append, so i suppose that i'm not sending it to the right objet. I try to send to the QWebEngineView, to the page, to the view object in the page. Is it a wy to access to the scollbars?

Why scroll function doesn't works on this widget?

Thx

There is a feature request to implement this: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-48323

For now, there is only a workaround which is to scroll using JavaScript:

QWebEngineView()->page()->runJavaScript(QString("window.scrollTo(%1, %2);").arg(scrollX).arg(scrollY));

See Henrique Santiago's comment.

It is not working because first you have to find the right child for which to send the event - see below
