[Publisher 2.5.7][BUG][Active view shifts out of text frame when text-moving longer than in-view]

[Franz Rogar]

BASIC INFO

• App & version: Publisher 2.5.7
• OS & version: Windows 11 (up-to-date)
• Graphic card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (up-to-date)
• Hardware acceleration: On & Off
• Reproducibility: Always
• Affects new document?: Yes

WHAT HAS HAPPENED
Active view shifted to the left when drag-and-drop text longer than in-view space.

WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED
Or no-shift or center-view on moved text.

MINIMAL STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Open Publisher
2. Create a new document
3. Create a text frame
4. Create two lines of text (leave enough space on the 2nd line to move part of the first line text)
5. Zoom enough to allow drag-and-drop text from 1st line at the end of the 2nd one
6. Drag-and-drop text from 1st line at the end of the 2nd one (view shifts to the left out of text frame)

BUG
Zoom shifts to the left out of text-frame when not enough in-view space for drag-and-drop text.

After reviewing the video I posted in other bug report, I noticed this might be a different bug (not triggered by "not enough space") because this other bug I posted suffers from the same "automatic actions": active view shifts to the right and zoom factor diminishes; so both of them probably are two sides of the same coin.

In this one, when you drag-and-drop the text, the active view shifts to the right and the zoom factor diminishes too.

In the other one, the first time the text overflows to the next page (before hitting up/down), the active view shifts to the right and the zoom factor diminishes.

So, my guess both of them are related to a wrong "centering the focus of the active view", regardless of the action (drag-and-drop or change-of-frame-across-pages).

Some hints that my guess might be right come from trying the same issue of the other bug but being both text-frames in the SAME page. If you zoom enough (leaving one of them out of the active view), when you move inside the text, the shift-view & zoom-reduction bug is triggered.
