Popups and dropdowns cause window to jerk

[Craig in Calgary]

This is probably a TW-101 simple question: whenever I select an object that pops up or drops down content the browser window always moves to the top of the page. For example, when I scroll down my list of tags and select the dropdown arrow for systemConfig the browser view moves to the top of the page. The dropdown content is still open and I can scroll back down to select the tiddler from the list I was looking for. But I've worked with other TWs that don't do this. Suggestions? Thanks.

Need more info:

* what browser/OS?
* what revision of TW?
* any plugins?
* custom themes/stylesheets?

enjoy,

Yes, but I have added {{{<div id='tiddlersBar' refresh='none' ondblclick='config.macros.tiddlersBar.onTiddlersBarAction(event)'></div>}}} to the several PageTemplate tiddlers associated with my MPTW-themed TW. Thanks.

 My personal conclusion is that my TW is a Frankenstein's monster. As such, chasing down this niggly bug isn't worth the effort.

IMO this doesn't fix the problem, because the ensureVisible() is the
crux in this case.
Can you try: http://freestyle.tiddlyspace.com/#TiddlersBarPluginMP and
tell if it fixed the problem?

TiddlersBarPluginMP took care of the jumpiness. Thank you very much. Again, thank you.
