Prettier-vscode: Cursor moving to end of file

[fgarcia]

My cursor is moving randomly to the end of the file when I format my files.

Not sure if this is related but I am also having the same problems as in https://github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode/issues/290

When prettier does not run on save, I execute "Format Document" manually and then I notice the cursor moving to the end of the file. The screen does not scroll, just the cursor, but if I touch my keyboard keys then it will scroll, losing the position where I was working

I have the same issue.
I have disabled all extensions except Prettier and One Dark Pro, issue remains, no errors in console.

VSCode info:

Version 1.22.1

Also happens on latest VSCode insiders build:

I've got no idea how to download a previous version and test it, otherwise I would try that.

System:

$ cat /proc/version

$ lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: LinuxMint
Description:    Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia

$ cat /etc/debian_version

I hope that helps, let me know if you need anything else.
Thanks in advance.

I am also having the same problem on Windows, but only one of my two development machines.
The problem occurs regardless of whether I have a project specific version of prettier installed (tried 1.10.2 and 1.11.1) or if I let the extension uses the shipped version of prettier (1.11.1).

I'm still trying to investigate any differences between my two machines.

I believe this unwanted behaviour only started occuring with the March update of VSCode (1.22).

[RobinMalfait]

I have to check it, but we are using the formatter API's from vscode. So I think that this is a problem with vscode or that we are using some incorrect options.

Does somebody have a small reproduction repository to test this? I can't reproduce it.

[CiGit]

This may be highly related : https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/47382

I have this behavior sometimes but couldn't reproduce it reliably for now.

I also started seeing this lately. Not able to reproduce this consistently but happens multiple times a day. With both Javascript and Typescript. I think this started after the last VSCode release.

[fgarcia]

I have not managed to reproduce the error consistently but I've found out two things:

1. Reverting back to vscode 1.21.1 solves the problem (at least so far)
2. The cursor changes position only if prettier has made a modification.

[msageryd]

Same problem here.
I also tried another prettier-plugin for VC Code. Same problem.

Seems consistent to me. I can reproduce like this:

1. insert new line under current line (cmd-enter)
2. save (with format-on-save activated)
3. try to move cursor with arrow keys -> you'll be beamed directly to EOF.

It seems this is fixed in VSCode. We will need to wait for next 1.22 release

[adriantoine]

I had that issue and I can confirm it's fixed in version 1.22.2 recently published.

[CiGit]

Fixed in VSCode 1.22.2

[mdunaev]

Same issue on 1.22.2

[JuhQ]

Can confirm, using visual studio code version 1.25.1 (1.25.1) and prettier plugin version 1.5.0.

Visual studio code settings for prettier are:

  "prettier.eslintIntegration": true,
  "editor.formatOnSave": false,
  "[javascript]": {
      "editor.formatOnSave": true
  },

@CiGit can you please reopen this issue?

[tim-hm]

@juhq do you have any other code formatting plugins? In my instance I thought it was prettier but the culprit was sort-imports and once disabled my cursor stopped jumping about.

[JuhQ]

@tim-hm sort-imports indeed is the culprit, thank you!

[aleclarson]

I'm seeing this in VSCode v1.33.0 on macOS v10.14.3.

The only formatter I'm using is prettier-vscode v1.8.1.

edit: This seems to be a VSCode issue: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/71707

[wi-ski]

This is killing me right now.

I was having the same issue. I just go to the Installed Extensions and uninstall the "HTML & CSS FORMATTER" extension. Reload and it will work fine.
