Split View - Design side jumps

Question

I've come to the conclusion that the most exhausting part of
working with Dreamweaver is chasing down my previous location on
the Design side of the Split View after making a code change. What
is it witth that? Example: If I select an area on the design page,
go into the code side and, say, change a local style cattribute (or
do just about anything for that matter) the page in the Design area
jumps to the bottom of the document. I'm tired of having to scroll
back to where I was every time I make a change in the code. I've
been dealing with this forever and just wrote it off as a quirk but
I need to know: Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks.

The settings you removed are NOT DW's default settings. In
other words, the
only way that *.htm and *.html could have gotten into the
Open in Code View
field would be if you had put them there.
