codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Scroller jumps like crazy, I'm tired boss [2 comments, 3 participants]

TL;DR

The issue with the VSCode extension's scroller jumping and failing to render previous messages while scrolling may be related to the implementation of virtual scrolling, and a potential fix could involve refactoring the scroller implementation.

Guidance

• Investigate the scroller implementation in the VSCode extension to determine if virtual scrolling is indeed the cause of the issue.
• Try to reproduce the bug with a smaller chat history to see if the issue is related to the amount of data being rendered.
• Consider using the browser's developer tools to inspect the DOM and CSS of the scroller component to identify any potential issues.
• Look into using a library like pretext to handle dynamic content scrolling, as suggested by the user.

Example

No code snippet can be provided without more information about the implementation of the scroller.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the user's setup, and more information about the platform and expected behavior would be helpful in debugging the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: The user's suggestion to refactor the scroller implementation using pretext or a similar library may be a viable workaround, as it could potentially resolve the virtual scrolling issues.
