Scrolling extends father than usual inside a Script

Bug Reports Studio Bugs
#1

Earlier today when checking resources and working on a project of mine, I’ve found it weird and confusing that the scrolling of a script goes beyond and an excessive amount than usual. This has caused me to scroll past the maximum lines and way down the line of my scripts that have a ton of lines and functions that I need to configure and change for gameplay and development workflow as a developer.

Bug replicates inside Roblox Studio when editing a new or old script, and it started to happen roughly an hour or half an hour ago.

^ Around the 5 ~ 6-second mark, it would go up to there and nowhere else for developers, users, and engineers.

How to reproduce:

  • First, open up Roblox Studio + open up a place.
  • Second, create/open a script inside any storage(s) in Explorer.
  • It should show a weird scrolling-behavior after the maximum lines.

Studio Version: 0.455.0.413788 (64-bit) as of 11/9/2020.

It’s either a bug or a new feature rolled out to scripts inside Roblox Studio, somewhat distracts me in a way and how I want to go from line-to-line in my scripts, would like an answer if this is a bug or an intended feature, not “normal” behavior.

This is a UX feature that allows you to scroll the code you’re working on into the middle of your screen without adding 200 empty lines to the bottom of your script. It is not a bug and is a very appreciated improvement.

This is indeed a new feature, and not a bug. But, if you preferred the old behavior, you may disable this by unchecking Studio Settings → Studio → Script Editor → Scroll Past Last Line.

Thanks for clarifying this, I thought it was a bug when I opened up some scripts of mine. Should probably check Studio Settings before determining it is a bug. :sweat_smile:

Interesting, I might try to get comfortable with having this in a ton of my scripts + a nice feature to have.
