Repository navigation
scroll does not occur on overflow #93
Description
While the scrollbar appears it does not auto scroll and so the cursor goes offscreen. It would be nice to have a plugin to do this, so that the user does not need to manually scroll, and so that the side scroll snaps to the cursor if it goes offscreen.

As this is part of the default functionality of a
<textarea>element (I think), this should be implemented in the core code, not as a separate plugin. Thank you for pointing it out!I am quite busy now but will try to start implementing it as soon as possible after 25 May.

This occurs on any of these three occasions:
These are replicated in both Chromium [MS Edge 125.0.2535.51 (Official build) (64-bit)] and Firefox [Developer Edition 127.0b5 (64-bit)] on Windows 11. However, in Firefox pressing the Tab key without selecting text will scroll the textarea right, but only this.

Fix #100 inadvertently caused bug #115, which makes
code-inputunusable on mobile devices (note to self: always test on mobile devices!). Another fix is needed that does notblurthenfocusthetextarea, or that does it without interrupting mobile phone typing.WebCoder49 commentedon Mar 16, 2026
let-textareas-do-their-job is the most obvious fix to this that doesn't cause a regression, mentioned at #148. It's a breaking change.
