Thanks for this. Now, I found out what happenend. After I started the selection, i.e pressed <Shift-v> I immediately pressed the down arrow key. The Shift key wasn't yet released and I ended up with <S-Down> which scrolled a half page down. This explains why it didn't always happen. As I never use <S-Down> I have remapped it: noremap <S-Up> <Up> noremap <S-Down> <Down> Now things are fine. -- Manfred > On Sat, Apr 27, 2019 at 3:40 PM Manfred Lotz <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > I don't know exactly how to describe my problem. > > > > I have started gvim and loaded a file. > > > > The cursor goes to line 215 and the last visible lines in the gvim > > window are line numbers 215 and 216. > > > > Now I type V, and go down to select lines of text. > > > > Very quickly, the buffer gets redisplayed in a way that now lines > > 219 and 220 are at the beginning of the gvim window which is weird > > as lines 215-218 are no longer visible.
