Re: Jumpy canvas on other platforms?

 

Ah yes, I can reproduce that on Windows too.  I guess I didn't notice
before because generally the scrollbars are visible (I noticed that "zoom
extents" doesnt *always* result in the scrollbars being hidden, for
whatever reason)
Any reason why we hide the scrollbars?  Seems like it might be simpler to
just always show them...
