Bug: Cannot read property 'tags' of null

[leonheess]

I updated to 8.4.9 and this error is occurring every time I use scrollTo()

well, there could be many reasons for that to happen and i would like to recreate this issue on my end to properly address that. Here are couple of things you can do

• Check http://rapidocweb.com/examples/collapsable.html and https://rapidocweb.com/examples/collapsable-focused.html these two examples uses scrollTo() method - and you can trigger it by one of the button provided at the top. When I tested, I was not able to produce it. However these examples uses a 9.0.0-beta version
• Next try out the 9.0.0-beta version to see if it fixes your case. You can pick this up from this repo at dist/rapidoc.min.js
• It could also be due to your spec, if none of the above works, provide me with a minimal spec that is creating this issue, the code on how you are invoking scrollTo() and the <rapi-doc> config that you are using

this was closed mistakenly due to wrong issue number in commit message ... reopening it

I upgraded to 9.0.0 and I no longer get an error message but the scrollTo() is completely broken. Any tips on how to debug this? I put in get-/items but it doesn't scroll to:

I made a code-sandbox to replicate the bug: https://codesandbox.io/s/vue-rapidoc-mep7u?file=/src/App.vue

And that revealed the problem: A race condition. If I add a delay of 100ms it consistently works.

I could solve the issue by doing this: rapidoc.loadSpec(spec).then(() => rapidoc.scrollTo("get-/items"))
