Exception when not available on mount

[lmeysel]

(Using Vue 2.5.16, Chrome 65)

When using the component on an hidden parent which first shows up under certain conditions (i.e. within a <div v-show="shown">...</div>), i get an exception Error in mounted hook: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'clientHeight' of undefined" in vue-scrollbar.vue line 267.

This is probably due to the non-rendered children which are just assumed that they exist. It's possible to work around it using the v-if-directive but I often came across cases where that is not feasable.

Unfortunately this kind of problem is very common when using vue and doing measurements of child-components.
