Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'd like to ask for a feature which I'm used to in other text editors
like notepad and notepad++ on MS-Windows (I think many other editors
may have it too).

I'd like to be able to configure Emacs so that scroll commands _never_
move point (cursor) from its _buffer_ location.

That could lead to situations where the point/cursor is not visible
(it is out of the visible portion of text).  In that situations, any
command which moves the cursor/point (e.g. C-f) or changes buffer text
should trigger an auto-scroll to get the point/cursor back to the
visible area (window), preserving its _buffer_ location.

That feature could be enabled by giving some special value (e.g.
'never) to the variable "scroll-preserve-screen-position".

I don't know how complex is that to implement, but I think some users
may like it.

It would require a complete rewrite of most of the display engine
code.  The Emacs display engine is based on the principle that point
should always be visible, so whenever it becomes invisible, Emacs
scrolls the window to make it visible again.  The display code checks
this in many places, and they all will need to be changed in some, yet
unspecified, way.

Emacs provides the mark and "C-x C-x" as a way to jump between two
locations without requiring the feature you describe.  If the purpose
of what you want is some other use case, I think it would be good to
have it described.

I have a similar wish.

Without revision of engine I think you can (1) restore point, (2)
preserve region, and (3) extend region.

Those can be implemented in following steps.
 (a) Call minor mode by mouse wheel,
 (b) Store point and region, then
 (c) Restore point when the minor mode is turned off.

One idea to preserve region is to use secondary.  I am waiting for a
patch to be processed.

How is this different from mark-related features, starting with "C-x C-x"?

I see.   :-(   :-)

I want the cursor to be a block, so I can spot it easily on the
screen.  But I don't want to see it when I'm doing a "exploring trip"
in the buffer.

Well, the point is that the requested behavior is a standard one among
many other editors.  I think this is something relevant to consider.

Well, it is similar, but "C-x C-x" requires you to push the mark
before you leave.  And users with little experience in Emacs may be
used to this workflow from their experience in other editors.

"C-x C-x" requires mark.  Also "C-x C-x" changes scope in buffer.

Most commands that go far away do leave mark where they were invoked.

I agree.  Command in my mind that does not leave mark was mwheel-scroll.
Also C-v and M-v do not leave mark.  I think they should not.

I don't think the change would be terribly hard.  One would have to
find the places that insist on putting point on the screen, but I
think the changes required in each of those places would not be big.

If someone wants to try it, I encourage per to try it.

The number of such places got a lot larger than it was when you were
more actively hacking Emacs, because over the years some users (Dani
included) requested more and more accuracy in that direction.

As for whether the changes in those places are hard, depends on how
well the person who'll do that understands what the code they are
looking at is doing, and why.  The answer might not always be obvious.

And then there are higher-level issues, like what does this mode mean
when scroll-conservatively is in effect.

> If someone wants to try it, I encourage per to try it.

Me too.  In fact, I'd encourage even smaller changes related to the
display code, so that we have more people who can make changes there
than we do now.

I was thinking about the person who will need to decide how to code
that.

In several places we behave under scroll-conservatively with the
explicit goal of keeping point visible in the very first/last
sufficiently-visible screen line: this might need to be changed if
keeping point visible is no longer a requirement.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't think that the
meaning/interpretation of 'scroll-conservatively' should be changed at
all, because AFAIK, that variable controls the auto-scroll triggered
by a point movement, and such auto-scroll would be equally necessary
with the proposed feature enabled (and should work equally).

??? The proposed feature is that point could go off the view without
requiring any scrolling.

The proposed feature is that any _scrolling_command_ (e.g. C-v, M-v,
mouse-wheel, ...) should perform its scrolling without altering the
location of point (wrt its buffer).  But any command which changes
either the location of point (wrt its buffer) (e.g. "C-u 200 C-n" or
the buffer text should check whether the point is currently visible,
and if it isn't visible, it should trigger an auto-scroll to make
point visible (exactly as happens now).

In short: point movement should trigger auto-scrolling (as now), but
scrolling should not move point.

I propose targeting mouse-wheel and scroll-bar-toolkit-scroll only, and
having a pseudo point.

This is in a middle, but I think building blocks are there.

;; Usage:
;;
;; To interactively toggle the mode:

;;
;; To make the mode permanent, put these in your init file:
;;
;;   (require 'touchpad)
;;   (touchpad-mode 1)

;;; Commentary:

;; Touchpad mode is a global minor mode which makes swiping touchpad
;; scroll smoothly.  This package disables `auto-hscroll-mode' during
;; scroll by the touchpad because of following two aspects.

;; (1) It should be off during vertical scroll.  Let=E2=80=99s consider a
;;     buffer with empty and long alternative lines and when point is
;;     at the end of a long line at the top of window.  After
;;     `scroll-up 1', point jumps to the beginning of the next empty
;;     line and you see scope shifts suddenly leftward.  This behavior
;;     is sometimes unexpected one.

;; (2) It should be off during horizontal scroll.  During horizontal
;;     scroll, you may scroll a little in vertical direction without
;;     intention.  The horizontal scroll should be tolerance against
;;     such perturbation.

;; After scroll by the touchpad, you want to set `auto-hscroll-mode'
;; back again otherwise too inconvenient for edition by the keyboard.
;;
;; Approach of this package is to turn on another minor-mode
;; `touchpad--view-mode' with `auto-hscroll-mode' nil, at the beginning
;; of `mwheel-scroll'.  The minor mode is turned off upon key input
;; from the keyboard that moves point.
;;
;; This package also converts point and region to
;; `mouse-secondary-start' and `mouse-secondary-overlay'.  When
;; `touchpad-restore-point-flag' is non-nil, point will be moved to
;; `mouse-secondary-start' when `touchpad--view-mode' is turned off.

;;; Code:

(require 'mwheel)

(defvar touchpad-restore-point-flag t
  "Restore point when `touchpad--view-mode' is turned off.")

I see a possible misunderstanding here: the way scrolling works in
Emacs, it moves point and then lets the display engine scroll the text
in the window to make point visible.  So the two use cases you try to
differentiate are actually indistinguishable as far as the display
engine is concerned.  For example, invoking goto-char invokes the same
display code as scrolling commands, which is why scroll-conservatively
is obeyed even by goto-char (as many users expect).

Ok I think I understand.

Then, the proposed feature would require a rethink of that approach,
because user-requested scrolling (C-v, M-v, mouse-wheel) would _not_
be driven by point movement, obviously.
