Page Up and Page Down key issues in Editor mode

XMLWordPrintable

      Issue summary

      Page up and Page down key in editor mode does not work as expected:

      • When there are no sections, page/up down key moves to the top/bottom of the page
      • When the page contains multiple sections, page up/down key moves to the top/bottom of that section users are currently viewing

      How to replicate - No sections

      1. Create a page with long content
      2. On Editor mode, use 'Page Up' or 'Page Down'
      3. Expected results: The Page up/down button acts as a scroll

      Actual results

      Pressing Page Up brought you to the Top of the page
      Pressing Page Down brought you to the End of the page

      How to replicate #2 - when the page that contain multiple sections.

      When pressing on the 'Page Up' key, the user is normally brought one page up with every press of the button. However, when the page contains multiple sections and the user is currently viewing content from a lower section, the 'Page Up' key brings them to the top of the first section in the page. This only affects Google Chrome and pages that contain multiple sections.

      1. Create a page with 5 sections.
      2. Insert long content in sections 3 and 4.
      3. Save the page.
      4. Edit the page again.
      5. Use 'Page Down' so your view is around section 3 or 4.
      6. Press on 'Page Up'.
      7. Expected results: Your page view only goes one page up.

      Actual results

      You get brought to the top of the page where the first section is at.

      Environments

      1. Multiple sections issue observed in Chrome, on Confluence version 6.13.1
      2. Both issues observed in Firefox 68.0.1, on Confluence version 6.15.7

      Workaround / Notes

      • Issue not observed in view mode
      • Use a different browser (e.g. IE).
      • If you're using a keyboard with no 'Page Up/Down' keys (i.e. MacBook), the issue is not reproducible using the shortcut for those keys (FN + Arrow key up/down).
