When I have a block with a lot of content, which does not fit in what the screen can display, if I write inverted quotes or parenthesis in the text of the initial part of the block, a jump in the scroll position is produced, which leads to the final part of the block’s content. This causes you to lose sight of the position where you just inserted the backquotes or parentheses, and you have to scroll backwards, manually searching for the position where the backquotes or parentheses were inserted. This behaviour is very inconvenient.
It happens when I press the left rectangular bracket ([), too; then [] appears in screen and the scroll jumps to the end of the block. And the behaviour is the same with left brace ({).
I used this text for the proof of concept, by creating a block with it:
- ## What is Lorem Ipsum?
**Lorem Ipsum** is simply dummy text of the printing and
typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard
dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley
of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived
not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting,
remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with
the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more
recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker
including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
**Where does it come from?**
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It
has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making
it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at
Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure
Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through
the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the
undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33
of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by
Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of
ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem
Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section
1.10.32.
The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is
reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33
from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in
their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914
translation by H. Rackham.**
Why do we use it?**
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the
readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of
using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of
letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it
look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web
page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a
search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their
infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by
accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
I inserted a backquote at the end of the title, and that triggers the undesired behaviour.
