Default Opening/closing attached docker can cause irretrievable loss of arrange view scroll

EDIT: Original thread title was:
Opening/closing docked MIDI Editor can cause irretrievable loss of arrange zoom

Discovered it's not MIDI Editor specific after this thread started:
https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=200642

It happens when a docker area has it's first/only window opened or last/only window closed, or docked/undocked. In other words, when the docker itself is opened or closed. Scrolls to the "last touched track".

EDIT 2: tested with 5.78 on windows 7x64
Original report and gif made with older version roughly current with date of OP.


-- Original Post Below --
Has this been reported? It would be one for window management section.

Opening/closing docked(attached) MIDI Editor can cause irretrievable loss of arrange view vertical scroll




I say irretrievable because unless you have done something like horizontal scroll/zoom at the previous level, you cannot get it back with SWS Undo Zoom.

I think selected tracks or maybe last touched track might have a bearing on it so if you try to reproduce make sure the higher numbered track is not selected. Which means you probably can't have click in arrange changes track selection preference enabled.

Bumping because of related development in 5.964pre2.

My opinion is that if opening a docker at the bottom of the arrange, the top should remain stationary. In other words, if some of arrange has to be given up, it should be covered by the new docker. I don't think it should follow the centering approach used for "showing/hiding envelopes en masse" in 5.964pre2, (although that approach might be ok for that). I don't open and close dockers on a regular basis at the top of arrange so I can't comment on that scenario personally.
