MD editor scrolls to the top whenever I add new content

Current behavior

When I add new content or even type an enter in the text under MD document, the editor always scrolls to the top of the document.

Expected behavior

Page should stay where the cursor is placed.

Steps to reproduce

Open a long MD file and try to edit it at the end.

[daxingshen]

i met the same problem when upgrade to lastes
version: 0.11.16(2019/5/22)

[ZeroX-DG]

Confirm the bug in the 0.11.16 version. Thank you for reporting!

It still occurs in the 0.11.17 version. And the theme problem as well.

I found it may be a problem of Preview part. When I uncheck “When scrolling, synchronize preview with editor”, the Edit part won't scroll up to top, but the Preview part does. So if they are synchronized they will go to the top together.

[MarkMoudy]

Same issue here. Unchecking When scrolling, synchronize preview with editor makes it possible to edit the note but the preview pane still scrolls up to the top on each keypress.

Version : Boostnote 0.11.17
OS Version and name : macOS Mojave 10.14.5

I think issues 3047 and 3023 are related to 3021 as well:
#3021

[lilacs2039]

I met the same problem, I came from #3047.

Unchecked "When scrolling, synchronize preview with editor" option.

Occuring situation

• Both scroll bars are at the bottom.
• Enter Any character.

Same here; I too have images in the note; had to disable the auto-scroll so that I can still write. Yet, the preview goes back to top regardless

[ericyan3000]

same here, it happened on both Windows and Ubuntu OS.
I also discovered that the problem occurred whenever the image inserting syntax is completed.
Either

![image]()

or

![alt text][ref]
[ref]: a

will trigger the error.

[RaiZiStyle]

I got the same issue, i'm on Windows 10. Boostnote 0.11.17 and both preview and text go full up. But only when i have an image.

[hikerpig]

I've done some digging and found it is caused by this line.

The initial commit message c667e14 explains the purpose and it's ok then. But some time after that, the code got moved around and becoming buggy.

I will make a PR to fix this

[matneu03]

[mjhoshea]

Having the same issue in Ubuntu 18.04 version 0.12.1
