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.

Se voglio modificare e modificare un lungo pezzo di contenuto, devo scorrere su e giù nella casella di modifica, e voglio che l’area di anteprima mostri il contenuto esattamente dove mi trovo nella casella di modifica, ma l’area di anteprima mostra il contenuto altrove.

Ad esempio, quando il mio articolo ha diverse sezioni e mi trovo nella sezione 4.2 nella casella di modifica, l’area di anteprima mostrerebbe qualcosa come la sezione 3.1.

È una funzionalità molto complicata, ci abbiamo provato una volta in passato ma presentava troppe limitazioni.
