[Question] Can we not scroll element into view by default while using elementHandle.hover() ?

[NareshMurthy]

I have a scenario where the element is already scrolled 50% , is there a way to hover over without disturbing the scroll?

Thanks!

@dgozman, wdyt?

This is technically possible. Could you please share why scrolling is a problem? I'd like to better understand the scenario to provide the optimal solution to our users.

I am running the test on a page which has an Ad Element, the element records the percentage it is being viewed.
In my case, I have already scrolled the element to some percentage.
