Align the fixture with the sizer height. The adapters set the sizer height from getTotalSize(), which includes paddingEnd. Include paddingEnd in all three scrollHeight assignments, set the initial pinned offset to 130, and set the post-growth height to 400.

Hi there, I am not sure the coderabbit review is legit, do you think any additional code changes are needed for this patch? |

Hey :) I am also eager to use this feature. It's a bit of a blocker for a feature we're working on. Is there any chance you can take a look at this one piecyk? (Picked your name from other reviews you've provided) |

Thanks for digging into this. I reproduced #1258 in a real browser (Chromium, react-virtual e2e chat app with paddingEnd: 80) and the bug is real, but this change doesn't fix it: with and without the PR the viewport ends up exactly 80px (= paddingEnd) above the bottom after the last item grows.
The issue's diagnosis doesn't hold in the DOM. Both the React sizer and directDomUpdates size the container to getTotalSize(), which already includes paddingEnd. So at the true bottom getVirtualDistanceFromEnd() is already 0 on main and wasAtEnd is already true. The guard isn't what's failing.
What actually happens (from an instrumented timeline):
resizeItemruns while the grown item overflows the not-yet-rerendered sizer. The browser'sscrollHeightgrows only to the item's end, not item end + paddingEnd.applyScrollAdjustmentwrites the correct scrollTop, the browser clamps it, exactlypaddingEndshort. The eagerscrollOffset(#1209) holds the right value.- The read-back scroll event reports the clamped value. The scroll callback only reconciles self-writes within 1.5px, so it treats the clamped read-back as a real scroll and overwrites the eager offset. Nothing re-applies the lost distance.
Without paddingEnd the overflowing item happens to extend scrollHeight to exactly the right spot, which is why it only shows up with padding.
Concerns with the change itself:
- Subtracting
paddingEndredefines "end" forwasAtEndand the empty-listscrollToEnd, whilescrollToIndex(last, 'end')andisAtEnd()still use the DOM max. That introduces a new inconsistency in the opposite direction: a user reading up topaddingEndpx above the bottom would now be dragged along by streaming growth. - The new test passes only because the mock's
scrollHeightexcludes paddingEnd (250 vsgetTotalSize()330), a DOM state that can't occur when the sizer isgetTotalSize(). - This touches published code, so it needs a changeset and shouldn't be marked "no release".
A fix that does work in the browser: in the scroll callback, record the scroll max at write time, and when a self-write reads back short and landed on that old max and the element can now reach the intended offset, re-issue the write. With that, the paddingEnd repro passes and the full react-virtual e2e suite stays green. A regression test for this should be a Playwright test in the e2e chat app with paddingEnd set (or a unit mock that keeps scrollHeight === getTotalSize()).

@piecyk thank you for your feedback. I have rebased committing a better patch. |

In `@packages/react-virtual/e2e/app/chat/main.tsx`:
- Around line 28-30: Validate the parsed paddingEnd value before passing it to
useVirtualizer, falling back to 0 whenever Number() produces a non-finite value.
Preserve valid numeric query values and ensure getTotalSize() always receives a
finite paddingEnd.
In `@packages/virtual-core/src/index.ts`:
- Around line 906-908: Update the else branch in _flushIosDeferredIfReady so it
does not clear _maxScrollOffsetAtWrite when _scrollToOffset replaces the
deferred state with a newer retry; clear tracking only if the flush preserved
the previous state. Add an iOS deferred-adjustment test covering a flush that
triggers _scrollToOffset, updates _intendedScrollOffset, and then retries
successfully after the container grows.
- Around line 895-899: Preserve the raw browser-reported offset and
deferred-write state in the retry logic around _scrollToOffset and
_flushIosDeferredIfReady: evaluate the retry condition against the
pre-reconciliation offset, and avoid clearing the new write state when a
deferred flush invokes _scrollToOffset. Add regression coverage for fractional
landing offsets and deferred flushes.
