Summary0015900: Story Editor jumps to top every time a style is changed
DescriptionIf you are scrolled down any amount from the top of the story editor, and you change a style, the editor jump all the way back up to the top, requiring the user to scroll down and try to find what last they were editing. This is a very costly bug time-wise, and severely cripples workflow. This is why I've marked the bug as major, and assigned it a high priority.
Steps To Reproduce1. make a text box with enough text to make the story editor scrollbars appear.
2. scroll down to a block of text, and change the style.

The editor jumps back up to the top once the style is changed. Working with anything more than a few paragraphs is an absolute nightmare.
Additional InformationPlease halp! :)
Thanks for your time, and dedication to making Scribus an industry grade page layout powertool.

I've discovered this is actually a duplicate of this bug: https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=13525
Situation is made worse by focus-follows-mouse, because you essentially have to keep the mouse over the story editor to keep it from jumping back to the top.
Also happens any time you move the window.
