We have just implemented an InviewEdit function in a Time Tracking database. Recently, we noticed that when the Save routine is run, the view refreshes when you move your selection to a new document and the view scrolls about three pages up. The selected document is selected, but if you are already scrolled down a couple of pages, you have to scroll back down to get to the selected document.
Please provide any solution possible to resolve this.
Subject: RE: InviewEdit view refresh
Does your editing cause the document that you were editing to be relocated in the view? I’m wondering whether the view is tracking so that the just-edited document is still displayed. If this is what’s happening, there’s perhaps something to be said for leaving it this way. After all, you can always press up-arrow/down-arrow to make the view display the highlighted row, but there’s no key to quickly find the just-edited row.
If you still feel that what’s happening is wrong, please report it to support – it’ll probably be assigned to me to fix, if we decide it’s a bug.

The first column of the view is categorized. This value doesn’t change when the document is edited. the only thing that changes is the editable columns. I have also tried to have the first column sorted instead of categorized and not sorted. same results. The arrow down does work, but I really don’t think the view should scroll like this.

I have found that the issue may be due to the fact that I am using colored background columns. When I removed these, the refresh did not make the document selected scroll out of the screen.

Please email me a small sample database that demonstrates the problem. Thanks.

I have seen this as well…very annoying. Yes, removing the alternate row background colors seems to resolves this. Maybe Notes is recalculating which rows are to receive background color?

here it is 2010 and this is still an issue even in 8.5.2. basically destroys the value of inviewedit. really annoying.

Same in 2011 too. Unfortunately the Removing Alternate row background is not fixing the problem for me. Still its jumping.

Good news from 2013 (almost 2014). I found a solution to the view scrolling problem.
Sub Queryrecalc(Source As Notesuiview, Continue As Variant)
caret = Source.CaretNoteID
If caret = "0" Then Exit Sub
Set db = Source.View.Parent
Set doc = db.GetDocumentByID(caret)
source.SelectDocument(doc)
End Sub
By adding the code above to the Queryrecalc event, the view will return to the document that was clicked after recalculating.
