When developing a RB app that is getting rather large (lots of lines of code), it can be a pain when, after running/testing what you've got so far, the RB editor returns to the top of your RB project code.
If the bit of code you're messing with is near the bottom of your code, then there're two things you can do to save having to scroll down the textarea every time:
1). simply copy/paste the bit of code to the top of your program, or
2) (my favourite) if you're a FireFox 3 user, simply click CTRL - F and enter the text you're looking for, then click on 'Next' (see foot of FireFox browser window) to jump to the right bit. If you use Branching (eg [start], [quit], [doSomething] then this is really easy.
This works for me and saves lots of annoying scrolling! Maybe RB will have a more sophisticated editing interface in the future? (eg like www.cdolivet.net/index.php?page=editArea)
