Hi!



Thanks for software



As title





Steps to reproduce issue





  1. Open “Find in Page/View” (keyboard cmd + f)


  2. Enter query


  3. Navigate through found queries (keyboard enter or UI arrows)


  4. Close find tool (keyboard esc)






Unexpected behaviour



After finding the query or navigating to the cell I want I may leave the find tool open while navigate my view. Then later, when I decide to close the find tool, my view jumps to the last found query/cell - why?!





Expected behaviour



Simply close the find tool, don’t mess with my view





Tested in multiple browsers - same behaviour



FYI Google Sheets exhibits same behaviour and has always annoyed the f#ck out of me



If you’re reading and:





  • agree, then please vote up (e.g. +1, like), or;


  • disagree, then please vote down (e.g. -1, dislike) - I’d love to know why?




Hope this helps and to hear back



Sincerely



software - OS: Apple, macOS, 11.4 (20F71)


software - application: Vivaldi, 4.0.2312.33 (Stable channel) (x86_64)

I have never experienced this behavior. I would try a different browser — the behavior you describe does not happen in Chrome or Safari.

My first interaction closes the find tool using GUI and the second using keyboard - notice the different results

Oh, you’re using the ESC key to close the find tool. Yes, I’m getting the same behavior as you. I would report this to support@airtable.com and see if they can fix it.
