using scrollArea.scrollBottom giving TypeError: cannot readt property 'offsetHeight' of null

[ibmkaga]

The error in console is - TypeError: Cannot read property 'offsetHeight' of null at t.value (scrollArea.js?5ff8:1) at t.value (scrollArea.js?5ff8:1) at t.value (scrollArea.js?5ff8:1) at Object.scrollBottom (scrollArea.js?5ff8:1) at ChatMessage.componentDidUpdate (chatMessage.js?8dd7:12) at ChatMessage.proxiedMethod (createPrototypeProxy.js?c130:44) at measureLifeCyclePerf (ReactCompositeComponent.js?d2b3:75) at eval (ReactCompositeComponent.js?d2b3:728) at CallbackQueue.notifyAll (CallbackQueue.js?f006:76) at ReactReconcileTransaction.close (ReactReconcileTransaction.js?ba2e:80)

Looking at the source code it seems the wrapper (less likely its content) object is coming as null in the computeSizes() method and that is having ripple effect.

changed the scrollBar to other places but no effect, does it require to be inside a wrapper/container when putting ScrollBar.

Probably, I solved this issue in my fork a month ago: https://github.com/mishantrop/reactScrollarea/commit/6fff885f6e20813736e8d831f5d860b6f5816ed0
