OneNote Keeps Jumping to the top of the Page

I think I was able to reproduce the issue, it seems to be an issue with tooltips that show when the user is scrolling. To reproduce o the following:

- Create a long document with multiple paragraphs that is about 4-times your screen size so you can scroll

- Add markers to all paragraphs (e.g. checkboxes: Ctrl+1)

- Scroll to the end

- Click somewhere in the last paragraph to position the cursor

- Hover one of the checkboxes so that the tooltip shows e.g. "Tasks", don't move your mouse!

- Scroll up and move your mouse cursor to the right (while scrolling!) so that the tooltip vanishes

- Bug: The document will now jump to a different scroll position

This screenshot shows the problematic tooltip. Mouse cursor was over the checkbox next to the tooltip.

Problematic tooltip

As a workaround, one can try to click outside of the textfield and make sure to not hover over any content while scrolling, so keep your mouse to the right.

Version was:

- Build 2403

Using a Logitech Mouse, so maybe Logitech Options also plays a role with this bug.

Here we are in February 2024........still having the same issue. I was just looking online for help but instead I found many, many pages of complaints about this obnoxious problem. Why isn't this fixed yet?

 Hosssss

my workaround:

if i work at one section of a pdf i use my mouse (Draw/Selection/Select-tool)
and click next to the section in empty space to move this writing-cursor "|" that blinks repetitively.

i have observed that after hitting Ctrl-Z onenote jumps to this spot where "you left off"
(if you would have been writing with a keyboard)

i hope it helps 🙂

Good Luck at your doings!

FIVE YEARS.....

Microsoft.

A big-shot company with 221,000 people working for ya. And yet, not a single one has yet given even a TINKER'S **bleep** to the people - from teachers to students, and even professionals of giant industries - who use YOUR services (in this case, OneNote), and have noticed a HUGE issue that his disrupting the work flow of ALL THESE poor people. 

Yes, microsoft, OneNote HAS an issue. I suppose 5 years worth of your own customers begging for a solution doesn't cut it. It's simple. When you import a PDF in a OneNote page, and you do anything in that page from scrolling to using your stylis, the **bleep** thing teleports you back to the TOP OF THE PAGE. And when your dealing with 40 page documents like some of the people here have, this is no laughing matter.... 

It's like running a marathon, but every 20 seconds, you teleport 10 meters backwards.

Microsoft. I've spent a good few minutes writing this. You have 221,000 people people at your command, and $2.45 Trillion USD (as of 18/09/23) in capital. Why not use an unimaginably small amount of your tremendous manpower and financial prowess to quell the suffering that our people face day in and day out.

Heed my word, please.

Alternative iv founded:  use google notes for larger notes, with the problem of not having notes well organised like OneNote. Than I use OneNote for smaller notes. Ironic!
