The current behavior of ScrollToCaret is that if it's scrolling down it will stop as soon as the line with the caret is in view, which would put that line at the very bottom of the viewable window. What I'd like to see is an option that will put the line X lines from the top.
Can you add an overload to ScrollToCaret that accepts an int that will do that?
In other words, ScrollToCaret(0) would ensure that the careted line is always the topmost line in the view window (unless there's not enough room at the bottom of the docmument to accommodate this, in which case the scrolling should be as far as allowable). And a ScrollToCaret(15) would put the caret in the middle of a 30-line window.
The biggest worry is if someone puts in a number that's larger than the current size of the window, in which case, default to the normal behavior.
Thanks.
