Description Simon Westersund 2018-09-24 11:51:52 UTC

SUMMARY Text editor jumps when inserting a new bracket with auto-brackets.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable auto-brackets and scroll past last line of the editor.
2. Put the cursor on the last line of a document.
3. Scroll the document so that the last line isn't in the middle.
4. Insert a new parenthesis or other bracket.

EXPECTED RESULT
Inserts both a start and end parenthesis and the edited line stays where it is.

ACTUAL RESULT
Inserts both a start and end parenthesis but the edited line jumps to the middle of the screen (vertical scrolling happens).

This bug also reproduces on KDE Neon with:
Kate version 18.08.1
KDE Frameworks 5.50.0
Qt 5.11.1

I wonder whether this is related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306745 - can you investigate?

Thanks for your replies Dominik, and sorry for my late response.

I tested this today with Kate 18.12.1, and this issue still reproduces. I updated the version of the issue, to keep it up-to-date.
(Other version numbers at the moment: KDE Frameworks 5.53.0, Qt 5.11.2 (built against 5.11.2), xcb windowing system)

I also had a look at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306745 but that issue does not reproduce for me. That is, it does not reproduce by typing anything, except auto-bracket characters.

ViewInternal: Fix makeVisible(..)

Summary:
- Proper calculation of new position to scroll
- Don't force to center cursor in view in most cases.
  This change looks slightly dangerous but nobody knows
  why that was done. So we give it a try now!
