Different scrollTo functionalities?

Looking at the $w() and wix-window implementations of scrollTo, I was wondering why the version implemented in wix-window allows animations to be disabled, but the other implementations do not?

Also, since the wix-window version allows a destination coordinate to scroll to, how does one get the position of a tag in order to make good use of the wix-window scrollTo version? The editor obviously knows the positions because the tool window updates the positions of the current chosen element.

The API doesn’t support it. I hope it’ll be developed in the future.
I guess you can (as a workaround) create a custom element and use element.scrollTo with options from there (not supported by Safari) .
But I’ve never tried it.
