[Regression 1.28.0-wmf.15] VE does not scroll cursor into view when adding new lines to end of document
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  • open a long page for editing
  • navigate to bottom
  • press enter a few times

The cursor will move down but the viewport will not scroll (so the cursor will leave the visible area), which is not how the browser's native editor behaves.
