When working in the online editor, the cursor jumps back to the beginning of the code, over and over. Its really frustrating! I see that this has been an issue for years now. Why isn't this fixed yet? Its happening for all 4 developers on my team. Using Chrome mainly.

Hi @michaeldoxsey 

 

If this isn't feasible you can temporarily: switch over to local development using Shopify CLI and Theme Git integration in place of the online code editor. This bypasses any of the browser-specific issues and results in better stability. Also, using a different browser such as Firefox for a while might help in giving rest to the jumping cursor issue.
