            Bug ID: 106435
           Summary: VIEWING: Document canvas view jump to the top of the
                    comment disrupts editing of long comments
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

In Writer, the document canvas view jumps up to the top of the comment (or a
hand's width above the comment if the comment box is not high) if the top of
the comment box, you want to edit, is out of the actual document canvas view.

This may be a reasonable solution for comments that are only a few lines long.
But it disrupts the editing of long comments e.g. if the comment box is higher
than the height of the document canvas view.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new Writer document.
2. Create a comment. It should be visible on the right of the document's page.
3. Fill the comment with text until the comment box is longer than the document
canvas view height.
4. Scroll down so that you can see the bottom of the comment box but not the
top of it.
5. Click into the comment or (if the cursor is already in the comment) type or
delete something.

Actual result:

The document canvas view jumps up to the top of the comment. As a result, the
cursor or your edit will be out of sight. You can't see the result of what you
have done and for EVERY further edit you have to scroll back manually.

Expected result:

If the comment box is longer than the document canvas view, Writer should not
jump to the top of the comment you are editing. At least the canvas view should
only jump as far as the cursor position is visible to the user.
