    Hey ​@Viktor Sherepa , thanks for reaching out about this!

     

    I understand you're trying to assign a fixed scroll position to an object, but the option is grayed out. I totally get how frustrating that must be!

    And thanks for your feedback about the lack of in-app explanation – it would definitely be helpful to see why you can't apply that when you try selecting a fixed position. I'll pass that thought along to the appropriate team.

     

    Could you please check if the object you're trying to assign fixed scroll position is inside a frame with Auto Layout applied?

    As mentioned in our Help Center article below, you can't assign a fixed scroll position to any objects within an Auto Layout frame unless that object has absolute position.
