Did you find a solution? @ConnorGray

Im refering to #2136 (comment) by you

[yveslange]

Wow, I was just going to report the same issue. No solution for the moment on my side, very annoying !

Seems similar to

Running into this as well

[zzJinux]

I'm experiencing the same issue.
This is REALLY annoying!

VsCodeVim Version: 1.7.0
vscode Version: 1.33.1
OS: macOS 10.14.4

Closing and re-opening the file is my current workaround.

The issue doesn't happen consistently for me and I haven't traced the steps that get me into the bad state.

I believe same issue: #3694

Same issue: after saving or after deleting the cursor jumps to end of file, all the time.

Thought it might be related to interference with Beautify/Prettier that reformats on save, but disabling all plugins except for Vim still shows the jumping. Restarting does not resolve the issue, neither does installing a different version of vscode-vim (pre 1.0.2).

Previous cursor positions are gone, `` to jump back jumps from end of file to beginning of file or gives mark not set. Effectively means after every save/delete I have to remember/mark the line I was on and jump back, or if I forgot that I have to actively search/browse to where I left off.

This is a big productivity impediment, hope you can find the root cause or clue to how to resolve it.

Does not seem to be file type dependent: happens to me on Vue files/plain JS/JSON/HTML. Did not see this behavior on a previous project about six months back, but no clue what version I had installed then.

👍 This really annoying

[atsukita]

same, hope it will be fixed.

[paolobanez]

I've fixed this issue by removing this setting. I'm not using it anyway.

[cdisselkoen]

I have been having this problem intermittently even without any custom keybinding involving the d key at all. Like others on the thread, closing and re-opening the file fixes the problem for me (at least for a while). Perhaps relevant, I do have the setting "files.autoSave": "afterDelay".

[cdisselkoen]

It can happen after other d commands as well (like d3j), not just dd.

[preciserobot]

Same behaviour here. It makes VSCodeVim unusable for me at the moment. As @cdisselkoen points out this affects almost any d command for me.

[vaidotasp]

Same here, this issue really needs attention as unpredictable behavior makes the extension virtually unusable.
