Description

[Chris Petersen]

Version: Apprunner
Build:1999042908
Platform: All
Expected Results: When typing, clicking the space bar should add a blank space.
What I got: The middle of document automatically displayed in the window and the
I-beam cursor lose it's focus.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Launch Apprunner
2) Select Editor from the Tasks menu.
3) Click the cursor in the sample document.
4) With the I beam cursor flashing, strat to type some text.
5) While typing, press the space bar on keyboard.
6) This will cause the document to scroll to the middle and cursor focus is lost.

Assigning to Simon, CC Mike and Joe in case this is due to selection or editing
problems.

this is due in some way to the scrolling view disturbing the focus when it does
the scroll-on-space thing.  if you comment out the line in the view code that
scrolls in response to the space key, the focus is no longer lost when you type a
space.

This is almost certainly caused by the same problem as bug 5419. Since that
is M6, I'm moving this to M6.

This problem has been fixed by joki's spacebar handling fix.
