Using the Hook Directly

If you need more control, you can use the useScrollPercentage hook directly:

import { useScrollPercentage } from 'react-stick-on-scroll';

function CustomComponent() {
  const headerRef = useRef(null);
  const [headerHeight, setHeaderHeight] = useState(0);
  
  useEffect(() => {
    if (headerRef.current) {
      setHeaderHeight(headerRef.current.offsetHeight);
    }
  }, []);

  const scrollPercentage = useScrollPercentage(0, headerHeight);
  const currentTop = -headerHeight + (headerHeight * scrollPercentage) / 100;

  return (
    <div
      ref={headerRef}
      style={{
        transform: `translateY(${currentTop}px)`,
        position: 'fixed',
        width: '100%',
        zIndex: 9
      }}
    >
      Custom implementation
    </div>
  );
}
