[22:19] <MrB> avox: i think this will be a quick fix for u.. at least u know the code somewhat: 0004884. the bug is fixed, but if you now change the position in the SE with the mouse and then change app and come back it moves back to the originally set position

sorry, cant find the cause for this behaviour. for some reason loadItemText() is called when focus is switched back to SE, tho that shouldnt reset the cursor to (0,0).

IMHO not worth the effort before 1.3.5

still in 1.3.6svn. The cursor resets even if moved by keyboard.

still in Debian Scribus:

Scribus Version 1.4.3.svn,
22 March 2013
Build ID: C-C-T-F-C1.12.16-64bit
Using Ghostscript version 9.05

Very irritating when editing long articles!

So after implementing fix r19886 behavior is not ideal but much much better. Instead of jumping back to beginning of the text block, now switching from and to Scribus will trigger the screen to move the active cursor line to the last line of the visible SE window. This is much better then beginning of the text block.

Only the search again does not work!

Look: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=12091
It was a temporary solution: in video from 1.40 (this is not working) :-(

Kunda, 0012091 is not closed, so this is not necessary to reopen that one.
