Hello,

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not. When I scroll the editor window in the IDE with mouse wheel or by using scrollbar the cursor stays put at its position (I have Persistent Cursor set to disabled). But when I scroll the window with Ctrl+Up, Ctrl+Down the cursor moves when it's at the top or bottom of the window, i.e., it behaves as if Persistent Cursor was enabled. Is this how it was intended to work?

I have never given much thought to it.
It would be what I expect. Any keyboard action scrolls the cursor into view (or keeps it there).

Then again it's a matter of personal taste...
