For even a small loop of just a couple of lines, the screen jumps to put the
current line in the top 1/3 of the editor window.  This is visually jarring.
Perhaps IDEA could determine if the "new" current line  is completely
visible and, if so, do NO scrolling.

Subject: [Eap-features] Diminish debugger scrolling



I would verry much like the debugger to scroll less when not needed. If I
perform a step, the highlighted line stays fixed at 1/3 of the screen, and
the code moves up or down. I'd like the highlighted line to move if the code
for it was already on the screen.

This may seem like a silly request. However, it is much, much, much easier
to spot the highligted line moving e.g. three positions down than it is to
detect theat the source around it has moved three lines up. Also, with
mouse-wheel scrolling standard in JDK 1.4 it is very easy for me to scroll
source in view if needed, and since that is a voluntary action I know what
to expect.
