Transcription area not scrolling properly #214

Bug reports:

"Something weird is happening where I can’t navigate down to the line I’m transcribing, so I have to close the upper window to make more room and now I’ve run out of room!" - Wyn

"As the transcript lengthened, the last few lines of it became unreadable because the text pane would not scroll all the way to the end. The only workaround I found was to adjust the browser zoom to a lower percentage so that scrolling wasn’t necessary." - Bill

"This happens when I copy code (a lot) from one file to another. The overlapping occurs in the receiving file." - John

Was able to reproduce by pasting large amounts of text. Screenshot:

What does this issue fix?

  1. User has no difficulty scrolling the xml part of the document show

How to test?

  1. Login and go to https://mel-textlab.herokuapp.com/#documents/121
  2. Select a chapter and then a leaf
  3. Scroll on the area you see xml tags (the lower right side of the screen) and make sure you have no difficulty scrolling

Scrolling is responsive, even with a very large amount of text pasted in.

Make the XML pane small, like 20% of the window height, and note that for longer xml contents, you can't reach the bottom of the XML. Make the text extremely small, and the pane large, and it's possible to see the entire xml again, but it's not possible at that point size to edit the text effectively.
