Pasting in content makes page scroll to top

[sferoze]

Whenever I paste in text content into the quill editor, it makes the main page scroll to the top.

So immediately after you paste content into the Quill Editor, if the main page is scrolled down, all of a sudden the page jumps to the the top of the scroll position.

Try going to the Quill homepage. Scroll the main page down some. Then scroll the quill editor documents down to the bottom and paste in some content. All of a sudden you will notice the screen jumping to the top of the page.

I am using Chrome 37 on Mac OSX Mavericks.

Hi @jhchen ,

I just tried the newest version of Quill v.0.18.0 and when pasting content, the page scrolls to the top and does not go back to the original position. I tested this in chrome 38.

So it is not functional to use paste in a long document as the user completely loses the position.

Okay I think I misunderstood originally. You are saying the outer page scrolls up not the editor itself correct?

[sferoze]

Yes it is the outer page. I set the Quill editor height to the scrollHeight so there are no scroll bars in the quill editor itself. So when you paste in the editor, the outer page scrolls to the top.

Awesome thanks so much for fixing this! I will update my app as soon as you cut a new release with this commit in it. Thanks again @jhchen

@jhchen I just tried the new version of quill by compiling the source. I noticed that the main issue is fixed and most of the time it does not scroll or move the page at all. But sometimes when you paste, the page jumps a little. It is tolerable from a user experience standpoint but still a quirk nonetheless.

Yes I agree ideally the page would not move at all. I'll have to see if this behavior is preventable rather than the the current approach of trying to restore position but it's the same issue both within the editor and the page the editor it is on.
