Scrolling the previewer by a single line can cause the previewer to scrol to the next or previous section heading

[davbeek]

Expected behavior

Scrolling the previewer by a few lines causes the editor to scroll a similar amount of lines.

Actual behavior

Scolling the previewer by a few lines may cause the editor to jump to the next or previous section heading. E.g. when I start the previewer at the heading Inclusions and exclusions and scroll a single line up, the editor jumps to the next section Analysis options. This big jump causes such a big difference in what I see in the previewer vs what I see in the editor that there is no longer any overlap on my 16 inch MacBook screen.

In general, the editor takes much bigger jumps than the previewer, I have noticed that it may also jump to notes or warnings or starts of figures. I am not sure if this is a bug or the intended behavior due to implementation difficulties of smooth scrolling.

On my Windows PC, I observe the same behavior.

When testing the behavior on my Windows system, I noticed that the issue is different from what I initially described. I have updated the two previous comments. Sorry about the initial confusion.

Interesting, will have to investigate

Unfortunately, I've not been able to reproduce this yet - is this still an issue for you with the latest pre-release (v0.96.0)?

If so, I've fixed the esbonio.preview.showLineMarkers option, when enabled the preview window will display the source location for the elements under the cursor.

Do any of the locations look wrong to you?

I having some problems generating the correct esbonio preview. This could be due to an incorrect setup introduced by myself. Problem is that this is the busiest period of the year for me, so I don't have time to fix this now. Will let you know when I have more time. I did see that scrolling is now synchronised very nicely and works great.

I got esbonio running again and the problems mentioned in this issue no longer occur, so the issue can be closed.

Glad to hear it! :)
