frag causes scroll down, but not on fresh start

webappzero commented 7 years ago

Hi Isaac,

Frag causes scroll down by 2 lines, but only after I've looked at a few slides and then backed up.

I said in video to only work on this for one hour, but it is important, so there's not a budget constraint on hours. You can manage it yourself against your other tasks is what I meant. Please this whole 5 min video to see exactly what I mean and hear a work around I suggest:

Gotcha, hmm...

I can't reproduce it on my end ☹️, punching through many slides and returning to frag- and notes-heavy slides to find a window jumper.

The states look like they should be properly ignoring anything that's not a full slide change.

Possible clues / Questions to double check:

Most web browsers use SPC and [arrow-down] to shift the window position down as a default. It's possible your Chrome is misbehaving when it should be passing those keystrokes on to Reveal's JS.
Does it happen in Safari?
Are you using SPC and DEL to move between frags+slides, or arrow keys?
Does the same thing happen if you have the main window focused instead of the text window?
Does it happen if you resize the text window to be bigger (but still short enough to need scrolling)?

If the problem persists I'll go ahead and see if I can dig anything up in the JS. (I would love to avoid a text-based workaround that would distract/muddle the text content of your talk 🤕)

Perfect sleuthing Isaac. You got me on the scent!

I found this help doc: http://superuser.com/questions/192647/stop-chrome-from-scrolling-down-every-time-i-hit-space

searched for and installed this chrome extension:

https://github.com/mikecrittenden/chrome-shortkeys

Created a shortcut which set space to do nothing and now I'm retired on the beach, living the dream.
