Comment (by garrett-eclipse):

 Hi @birgire that matches my install. It's the change to using `display:
 none` that causes the issue of the jump and is what the latest patch
 addresses. Previously it was just changing visibility but that left large
 gaps in the copied text so the display none ensured that space was removed
 but causes a jump in the page on certain installs.
 Are you on Windows per-chance? I noticed Firefox wasn't affected by this
 and some other browsers might not have the issue either so I ensured the
 patch didn't negatively affect those browsers while addressing the ones of
 issue.
 If you inspect and put a breakpoint just after that addClass  javascript
 line it should pause what's happening to the point you should see your
 page has gotten much shorter. And then when that class is removed the page
 will become longer again but your scroll position may be left half-way up
 the page. If it returns your view back then maybe try to reproduce on
 another browser. The ones i found of issue were all on mac; Chrome, Opera,
 Brave, Safari.
