I've been experiencing this bug for a while, but I was never able to track it down or even rule out that it wasn't something I was doing in my application. I finally found a way to consistently reproduce it in the Sample Application.
1) Open Sample Application (which will load the C# Language by default).
2) Without doing anything, use the 'Language' menu to change the language from C# to HTML.
3) In the HTML document, slide the scrollbar all the way to the bottom of the document (don't move the caret, although I'm not sure it matters). At this point, the first line I see is #19 and the last line I see is #37.
4) From the 'Window' menu, select "Split Horizontally". At this point, the first line in both splits is #19 and the last line is #27 (so far, so good).
5) From the 'Window' menu, select 'No Splits' to turn off splitting. At this point, the view looks like Step 3.
6) Withing doing anything else to the HTML document, use the 'Language' menu to change back to the C# language.
7) In the C# document, slide the scrollbar all the way to the bottom of the document. At this point, the first line I see is #39 and the last line is #57.
8) From the 'Window' menu, select 'Split Horizontally'.
At this point, the first line in the top split is #31 and the top line in the bottom split is #39. These starting line numbers should be the same. In this example that I was able to reproduce, the line numbers aren't off by much at all. In some of the larger documents I've been working with, the difference has been huge (1000+ lines off... strangely enough, the top split had a tendency to start at line #101).
Anyway... I'm glad I was finally able to reproduce this. Hopefully you'll be able to trace down exactly what's causing the problem.
