Hi all,

I am assuming that I am not the only one that gets very annoyed when a TextMorph scrolls the text when typing, such that the line I am typing is always at the bottom, or scrolls the debugger when I am stepping over instructions. I looked into this (bug
https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/12569/TextModel-should-not-move-scroll-when-accepting-text actually) and I found a fix.

But first I want to understand why the code is as it is. Anybody have any idea why PluggableTextMorph>>setTextBasic: starts with scrollBar setValue: 0.0. ?? If I remove this line the very annoying behavior is gone, and as far as I can see there are no negative consequences on text handling (and scrolling) in general. So I am wondering why it is there at all.

A slice with my fix is in the inbox if you want to play a bit with it: SLICE-Issue-12569-TextModel-should-not-move-scroll-when-accepting-text-johanfabry.1

Please have a look, this behavior has been getting on my nerves for quite some time now ���
