Hi. I have an issue with the user interface in editing math inside
large tables. Whenever I have a table with many rows and math formulas
inside, and only part of the table is visible in the writing area, if
the cursor is outside the table, and I click inside a math formula,
the focus changes, and LyX rearranges the view so that the row where I
clicked goes to (near) the top of the writing area (sometimes to the
bottom). Actually this happens also when I click in some cell without
a math formula, but not always for some reason. I find this extremely
annoying, as I have to do this sort of editing very often so I get the
text bouncing around.

So my questions are:
1) is this a bug, or by design?
2) if by design, what is the reason for this behaviour?
3) Is there anyway to make LyX stop doing this?

Thanks

I'm using LyX 1.6.7 on Ubuntu 10.10.
