Confusion on useScrollViewOffset in 3.10.1

[thebiltheory]

I am using useScrollViewOffset on a Flatlist, I am assuming that a Flatlist is also a scroll type component.

However, (according to typescript) it seems that useScrollViewOffset is only meant to be used on a ScrollView?

Yet, when I use it on a Flatlist, it works. Are the typings wrong, or the fact it also works on a Flatlist coincidental.

Hey!

It is just the incorrect type. useScrollViewOffset works with other animated scrollables as well, so Animated.Flatlist works fine.

Remarks from the scrollTo function documentation apply to the useScrollViewOffset, so it should work with other animated scrollables, like Animated FlashList.

You can just cast the type for now to satisfy typescript. We will have to fix types in the library in the future and change the hook name to something more meaningful because the current one suggests that it works only with the ScrollView component.
