When attempting to fix an element when the user scrolls past it, I encountered an issue. Despite the element (in this case a navbar) being approximately 300px in height, it consistently returns a value of 0.

Within my mounted method where the calculation is performed, the value of stickyTop is always logged as 0.

Both the usage of offsetTop and getBoundingClientRect().top result in a constant output of 0.

mounted() {
    let self = this;
    let sticky = document.getElementById("sticky");
    let stickyTop = sticky.offsetTop;
    let scrolled = false;
    let $window = window;

    window.addEventListener("scroll", function (e) {
      scrolled = true;
    });

    let timeout = setInterval(function () {
      /* If the page was scrolled, handle the scroll */
      if (scrolled) {
        scrolled = false;
        if (window.pageYOffset > stickyTop) {
          self.isScrolled = true;
        } else {
          self.isScrolled = false;
        }
      }
    }, 2000);
  },

For reference, here is the entire component:

<template>
  <nav
    id="sticky"
    class="LAYOUTnav1_maincontainer"
    :class="{ fixed_class: isScrolled }"
    @mouseleave="activeNav = null"
