Subject: Emacs recentres point in buffer if it is moved anywhere -- annoying!
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2015 10:03:41 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b573c71b-2c51-466c-93e9-29d3cd1ec7ee@googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hi,

I have Emacs 24.4, running on OS X Mavericks.

I am encountering a very annoying problem which is that Emacs automatically recentres the point after every single movement. The is a small delay (ranges from about 0.5 secs to 3 secs), and then it jumps, just as if I had pressed C-l. I cannot find anything about this through google searches; no variables or minor modes, etc.

Weirdly, it usually doesn't happen. I can have Emacs open for ages without this annoying behaviour, then suddenly it just starts happening. I have no idea why. I have tried to restart and isolate all the commands I am entering, but I have not been able to work out what could possibly be causing it.

I can provide my init.el if necessary.

Many thanks,
David.
