Ignoring slipped selection after scrolling down extremely fast

Open Sheepolution opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug When scrolling down a file extremely fast the extension will go into a state where searching will give a ignoring slipped selection warning, and the cursor will jump back to its original position after pressing escape twice.

To Reproduce

  1. Add a mapping to move down fast. For example:
nnoremap J 10j

Though I managed to trigger this with 1j as well. Simply using j on the other hand does not trigger it. 2. Go to a file that does not fit on a single page. Two screens long should be enough to trigger the bug. 3. Scroll down by holding down the mapped key. Note that I have my Windows modified for rapid repeated keys. I'm not sure if that is necessary to trigger this, or if the normal repeated key interval will suffice. 4. Press Ctrl + F for search. 5. Search anything away from where your cursor is currently at. 6. Press escape twice. 7. The cursor jumps back to its old position.

When you search a warning triggers: Ignoring slipped selection: [49, 51; 49, 52] appear.

Expected behavior When pressing escape twice I expect my cursor to stay in the position where it was placed as a result of searching.

Screenshots Searching for b and then pressing escape twice. jump_back_bug

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • Extension (VsCodeVim) version: V1.27.3
  • VSCode version: 1.91.1
  • OS: Windows 10

Additional context This is a terrible type of bug, because it makes me distrust my editor. Every time I press escape after a search I need to hope that it will not jump back. If anyone has a quick fix for me, that would also be great.
