2. Refresh the page.
3. Scroll up to a message containing an image.
4. Click on the image.

Server Setup Information:

• Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 6.7.0
• Deployment Method: Docker
• Number of Running Instances: 1
• MongoDB Version: 6.0.14

Client Setup Information

Based on the reports by the users on my Rocket.Chat instance, the issue seems to occur in every browser. I just successfully reproduced it using:

• Browser Version:
  • Version 123.0.6312.105 (Offizieller Build) Arch Linux (64-Bit)
  • Firefox 124.0.2 (64-bit)
• Operating System: Arch Linux

Additional context

The same behaviour occurs when clicking a link preview or an attachment.

We are witnessing the very same thing happening with the message toolbar. For instance:

1. Switch from one channel to other
2. Scroll up to some old message
3. Hover mouse over the message and select Reply in thread

Reply in thread action does not trigger and the message view scrolls to bottom.

Edit: Many other elements seem to trigger this too.

Edit2: Also reproducible in the official open.rocket.chat.

@juliajforesti Hi, do you think this issue could have been introduced by the new date bubble feature?

For some reason I am unable to produce it neither in open.rocket.chat or in my local dev environment.

I can't reproduce it on open.rocket.chat either. Maybe this depends on the deployment method? There have been issues in the past that only occurred when using Docker.

[Gummikavalier]

I think they've simply fixed it there now. It did happen the last time I tested there, but I cannot reproduce there anymore either.

I have the same bug, it can be reproduced as follows:
-In the browser (refresh the page):
-In the app (View menu -> Refresh without cache):

1. Open any chat with a long history
2. Scroll up until loading old messages
3. Click on any message and it scrolls all the way down

I have the same problem after updating to version 6.7.0

Indeed it's an issue folks. Unfortunately it is a side effect introduced with the message keyboard navigation we shipped on 6.7. It's already fixed an the 6.7.1 is on the way
