Does anyone elses have their screen jump to who knows where when you do certain things? Is it a redraw thing.
Also on v6.2 I have noticed strange things like Dorico not responding to a click or a tempo mark or setting, etc. Shutting it down and restarting clears it. I don’t remember that happening before.
It might be of help if you could you tell more on those things. What actions are they, in what mode, etc.
It might also help pinpointing your problem if you could tell which OS version you’re using, which Dorico version, etc.
Well Tom it is random selections or edits some are worse than others. When I select a bar line for playback start Dorico v6.2 jumps that measure to the last measure on the previous page. I suppose that’s normal behaviour for Dorico. Its OK but if you were going to cause a jump why not to the first measure of the current playback start page?
Use the J to transpose and who knows where it will end up perhaps pages away as an example. Maybe just the top of the page. Switching modes. Going from gallery view to page view. Is it a redraw thing?
Nobody else is seeing or experiencing this behaviour?
Windows 11 most current update. But I don’t see that as a cause since no other program jumps around. Finale doesn’t jump around.
And zooming
I use Mac, Tahoe 26.4.1, and occasionally see things similar to what you describe. It doesn’t happen often. The last time it happened, I double clicked on a staff to enter notes (I use duration before pitch) and the caret activated in a different voice and a different measure. I pressed ESC and repeated the exact same steps and it worked normally by placing the caret on the same staff in the same bar (measure). Since it didn’t repeat, and Mercury was in retrograde, I just chocked it up to a fluke.
All kidding aside, there have been some odd occurrences of weird things happening in Write Mode that I never reported because I could not recreate the problem. Without the ability to recreate the issue, it’s always assumed to be operator error (which I honestly do not think was the case). And, I understand this perspective but it’s not always true yet unprovable. BTW, I’ve encountered this since migrating to Dorico in August 2024 which was at ver. 5 then if I remember correctly.
I have found that the screen jumps if one inadvertently still has a selection somewhere.
So to avoid the jumping, pressing Ctrl/Cmd-D before doing an action helps, as it is the shortcut for “Deselect all currently selected items”.
I have also read somewhere in this forum that changing the display zoom level slightly prevents the jumping.
I don’t have anything selected elsewhere. But thanx for the info.
Not sure about the celestial alignment but I don’t remember Dorico v5 doing it. Perhaps it did those were dark days for me and Dorico. I probably just thought it was me. It’s tougher to learn and a tougher go when you only have two brain cells left that still work.
More jumping is noticed on the forum, including this thread.
But the most odd experiences seems not to be reproducible, therefore hard to debug and solve.
I’m sure the development team will be glad if you could provide them a reproducible example of things you experience as ‘wrong’ jumping
Dorico is build with a multiplatform framework. There might be situations where certain things are showing unintended on one of those platforms. Only the developers will know, but there’s no harm in providing all the info you have 
In my experience, if I have an exact zoom selected, like zoom to page height, Dorico can occasionally jump to an unexpected spot if, for example, you change modes from one without a zone showing to one with a zone showing (or vice versa) and it has to change the zoom percentage when it redraws the page in order to maintain the fit to page height. A way to prevent this unexpected jump is to make sure that the zoom percentage is slightly different from an exact fit, then the zoom percentage will stay the same regardless of whether or not zones are showing (or the properties panel).
As has already been mentioned, it’s also important to make sure nothing is selected when navigating around, as Dorico can try to jump to that selected item. I usually do this by clicking in a blank spot (or pressing Ctrl/Cmd-D). In addition, if an item is selected in Write mode, an inadvertent keypress can change it without your noticing it.
Well, that has caught me several times even though I know it is my sloppiness. This might be a great example of where AI could develop an understanding of what functions we are actually intending and giving a warning before the change occurs. Well, it is supposed to be “intelligent”…
It is seemingly random.
For the second time I don’t have other selections. Not sure why it happens but it doesn’t happen because of an unwanted or unaware selectoins.
