Guys, please fix this. It has bad visual effect. Our product (and any other) with this glitch looks very unprofessional.

We also have user complaints (flicking) about big list virtual scrolling. Can you please advise?

[stasberkov]

This nasty visual glitch goes away if using custom scrolling strategy like this

export class CustomVirtualScrollStrategy extends FixedSizeVirtualScrollStrategy {
    constructor() {
        super(60, 250, 500);
    }

    override onContentScrolled(): void {
        setTimeout(() => super.onContentScrolled(), DEFAULT_SCROLL_TIME);
    }
}
