ST4 1792 - Lyric sheet import automatically scrolls to end after import

AnthonyB

Not sure if this was done intentionally, but it is different to ST3 and I'm finding it slightly annoying.

Environment: ST4 Build 1792 (and any previous builds) on iOS 26.0.1

Current Behaviour
When I import a lyric sheet, after import completion it auto-scrolls to the bottom of the lyric sheet.

Desired Behaviour
When I import a lyric sheet, after import completion, stay at top of page

You mean in the editor?

AnthonyB

peter Yes, sorry. In the editor.

Go to a Song
Go into Song details page
Select Lyrics on the menu
Import some lyrics from a text file
It jumps to bottom of screen after import completes.

Hm, in my tests (on iOS26) it always stays on top of the lyrics. Does anyone else see this issue? Was the keyboard active when importing the file? And where was the cursor placed if the keyboard was open?

peter

I did not change anything in the lyrics editor. Let me repeat my questions:

I just re-tested on ST4 Build 1810 and it is no longer doing it!

I think we can close this one and if it re-occurs I'll re-open it.

AnthonyB

OK, weirdly, this has returned in 1848! Exactly the same as behaviour as before.

Keyboard never active when I've done this.

Updating lyric sheets by importing an updated version (text file from OneDrive) is something I do very regularly.
I've never seen this behaviour in ST3.

I'm just doing some lyric updates in ST4 1876 and what I'm noticing is that it isn't scrolling to the very bottom of the lyric sheet after import, but most of the way down. I know that it quite imprecise, but I can't seem to find the common logic.
Also, if I exit the song, re-enter the Song, go to Lyrics tab, and re-import the exact same lyric file, it won't do it. So it does seem to be attributed to refreshing the page.

Sometimes it is scrolling to show last line at the bottom of the screen (this might be shorter lyric sheets)
It isn't a single "Page Down" (I don't think)
It isn't scrolling down to get the first Header tag to top of the screen
It isn't scrolling down to first non-comment event

It's as though it is just doing a random scroll and stopping.

I've recorded 2 videos reproing the behaviour - https://we.tl/t-EpjtMbpKOg
EDIT: Sorry, I should've thought to also include some Lyric sheets I'm using - https://we.tl/t-OdKYxj5JeU

Also, certainly not a high priority issue; just weird and unexpected.

I can see the issue only when importing something while the cursor is placed at the end of the existing lyrics. In that case one could argue whether this would be the expected behaviour. Given that all the text before the cursor was replaced one might still expect the cursor to be at the end of the document.
