Pressing `PageUp` when editing task description causes scrolling of main window

Bug Desktop
1

Accidentally pressed PageUp and discovered this. I’ve attached a screen recording on how this happens.

Bug happens specifically when editing a task description, and if the cursor is anywhere in the description other than at the start. I guess the UI gets shifted up? Kind of a minor bug since I don’t think people will be pressing page up / down when editing the description.

Thanks for the video report.

Just to clarify the problem is that the list scrolls when you press PageUp while editing the description, right?

I notice this also happens for Home and End keys.

So the way it seems to work is this:

  1. If your note content is overflowing the editor area, pgup/pgdn will scroll text until it reaches the top or boom.
  2. If you keep pressing pgup at the top or pgdn at the bottom, the main window itself will start scrolling. This is the behavior I think you observed

The list scrolling isn’t much of a problem since I guess it would be intended behavior. It’s when the main window itself scrolls that it creates a gap at the bottom. Seems the gap size is also affected by the UI scale factor when this happens. On factor 1, this isn’t much of an issue but on something like 1.2, it’s very noticable.

Yes I agree, I’m just trying to understand the issue. I’ll add it to the system as a bug to fix.

May I ask what tool you use for the screen cast?

Recorded using OBS. I used Keyviz for showing the pressed keys overlay.
