| Debug screen automatically scrolls while stepping [message #919128] |

Somehow I have set an option somewhere and now my debug window is acting very strange.
It used to behave in the following way: You run the app and it breaks on a break point. You press F6 to single step. The text on the screen would not move, only the current line indicator would move down one. When the current line indicator got to the bottom of the screen, the screen's text would then jump up 1/2 page so that the current line was now in the middle of the screen. Single stepping again only moved the current line indicator down- the text stayed where it was.
NOW it goes like this: When you hit a break point in debugger and click F6 to step over, all of the text on the screen scrolls up, so that the current line of code you are on is always in the center (vertically) of the screen.
This is highly annoying as every time you step, the whole screen shifts and you have to get your bearing again. It's almost like there's some sort of 'scroll lock' set for the debugger, but I can't figure out how to stop it.
Can anyone help?

For future reference, I believe I have solved (though not completely understood) the problem. By switching the workspace to a new one, the problem seems to have disappeared. My hunch is that if you have a Python project in the same workspace as java projects, perhaps Eclipse get's confused about which debugger to use, so when in a java debugger it does not work properly.
At least these are my initial thoughts.
