Description Telesto 2021-04-13 08:08:56 UTC
Description:
Unexpected view change after clicking last line of text visible

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attachment 171144 [details]
2. Zoom in until you get the view of attachment 171146 [details] (in my case 160% with 1920x1080 screen)
3. Click the line below: the yellow "pellentesque" at the bottom. 

Actual Results:
View jumps

Expected Results:
Should be able to select the text without change of view. That happening is unexpected and disturbing and annoying (compare Word, sorry still a benchmark)


Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Telesto 2021-04-13 08:13:33 UTC
Note the behaviour is depending on amount of toolbars rows/size of the toolbar icons. 3 rows of toolbars at the top creates the 'ideal' view in sample here (but well that's kind of luck; matter of zoomlevel)

If we do what you recommend nothing would hinder users to select text out of sight, which makes no sense.

Me would rather expect a smooth scrolling. Could be attached to the "Smooth Scrolling" option. It has a meta ticket on its own in bug 98754 and perhaps this ticket is a duplicate of some other.

Would improve the situation a lot.. this likely also connected with bug 81829
