------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Mar 5 15:31:58 +0000 2008 ------- I completely agree with rblevin that this is a serious bug. Fortunately it does not bother me much because I hardly ever use OO, except to read things sent to me, and I immediately convert to PDF and read using xpdf which does not have this problem. For producing my own documents I use latex. I did recently have to convert a latex document to word because of restrictions of an incompetent publisher, and once again found this jumping behaviour when using the 'up' or 'down' arrow key very annoying i.e. whenever the text cursor hits the top or bottom of the window the next keypress causes the text to jump several lines, losing the visual context. I can't imagine who ever wanted that sort of behaviour. Fortunately I found that using the scroll wheel on the mouse did not produce that behaviour, and that is much less tiring (and rsi-inducing?) than constantly clicking on the arrows at top or bottom of scroll bar which also avoids the jumping. But I would prefer not to have to touch the mouse to get sensible text-scrolling behaviour. I feel very sorry for people who can't use other text processing systems instead of OO. (I have no idea whether this is also in MSword: I have never used that, as I use only linux and unix.) Since there are already two mechanisms that produce the right behaviour it should be trivial to fix the bug. perhaps users who want the jumping behaviour shuld be able to turn it on (are there any??). Or at least enable other users to turn it off.
