Protractor: Scroll down

Question

I have a button on my page that is visible when the user scrolls down. Because of this, protractor tests give me an error:

UnknownError: unknown error: Element is not clickable at point (94, 188).

I tried using:

browser.executeScript('window.scrollTo(0,document.body.scrollHeight)');

which worked when I tested it in protractors elementexplorer.js but in my regular tests it doesn't do anything. Any other way around this?

You need to wait for the scrolling to complete before any click works. Try this: 

browser.executeScript('window.scrollTo(0,0);').then(function () {

    page.saveButton.click();

})

Or this could also be another way of getting it done.

browser.actions().mouseMove(element).perform();
