Synchronize scrolling between editor preview

Scrolling not sync between Editor and Preview not working well when using lot of formated text like code, links etc.

  1. Write a lot of text mixed in with code block samples, links etc now and then
  2. After a while, you will find that where you are typing in the editor is not in view in the preview.

I have been experiencing cases where preview does not sync its scroll position to where the editor view is. It seems to act up when I use several formatted text, links mixed with regular text and markdown.

I expect the preview to always show where you are typing in the editor.

FEATURE REQUEST: editor shall sync with preview (on demand) as the reading of the preview is more much convenient.

Syncing is a best effort kind of thing, it is never going to be exactly perfect.

fair enough but it could help if I e.g. double click on the text on the preview window, editor is focused on the same text.

Sure, just sign up for an enterprise hosting plan at https://discourse.org/buy – we regularly prioritize enterprise customer work.

we are non-profit, so enterprise hosting option is properly far beyond our current budget.
We are glad that at least we were granted the same chat app under non-profit licences model you are using.

What about nextcloud, home-assistant, fairphone, are any of those enterprise customer?
I publish complex post over there frequently, so I could make a suggestion over there.

Si quiero editar y modificar un texto largo, tengo que desplazarme hacia arriba y hacia abajo en el cuadro de edición, y quiero que el área de vista previa muestre el contenido exactamente donde estoy en el cuadro de edición, pero el área de vista previa solo muestra el contenido en otro lugar.

Por ejemplo, cuando mi artículo tiene varias secciones y estoy en la sección 4.2 en el cuadro de edición, el área de vista previa mostraría algo como la sección 3.1.

Es una característica muy complicada, lo intentamos una vez en el pasado pero vino con demasiadas advertencias.
