It's on our TODO list. Most of the components we use are not native MyFaces, they are custom components so will not support that property.

Thanks,

Has any action happened on this point ? It is particularly annoying for users to continually have to rescroll after every page refresh.

cheers

No sorry, if you raise an issue for it in JIRA and it gets voted on enough then it may climb up the priority list - mostly our UI dev work has been concentrating on the Share client UI.

FYI. I found a temporary solution to this. It uses the mootools cookie stuff which is included in explorer, but works fairly well. In titlebar.jsp, I added:

window.onunload = function() {var myCookie = Cookie.set("scroll", getScrollTop());}
function getScrollTop(){
    if(typeof pageYOffset != 'undefined'){return pageYOffset;}
    else {
        var B= document.body;var D= document.documentElement;
        D= (D.clientHeight)? D: B;
        return D.scrollTop;
    }
}
var scroll = Cookie.get("scroll");
if (scroll > 1){
  window.addEvent('load',function() {scrollTo(0, scroll);});
}
