Scroll to Object
‘Scroll to object’ brings improved accessibility to scroll to interactions by targeting the exact object the user's keyboard focus will shift to, which is key when dealing with content nested within groups.
As an example, consider an experience where each section of content is grouped together. In this situation, ‘scroll to position’ will shift keyboard focus to the nearest parent object, which would be the top of an entire section. However, with ‘scroll to object’ the designer can shift the audience's keyboard focus directly to the CTA nested deep within that section by targeting it specifically.
As an added bonus, if your layout changes there’s no need to update anchors as your interaction is tied to the object rather than a position on the page.
