When replacing everything, maintain the scroll position

@arteze Provide some example Steps To Reproduce on some sample data, so that it can be understood what problem you are having.

@alankilborn Unfortunately I couldn't find any video on the internet that explains it. And right now I'm on a system where Notepad++ is not installed. I have it installed on the other PC.

What I'm saying is that when I replace some text, the screen position changes to show the first line of the document. What I want is for it to continue showing the line where it was already seeing before replacing the text.

the screen position changes to show the first line of the document

And this is where a concrete example would help (maybe), because when I "replace some text" the screen position doesn't change. The bottom line is that, with the explanation provided, I can't replicate your problem. Thus I can't comment further (on something I can't reproduce -- or probably fully understand, from the description).

Notepad++ is now changing the scrolling in a multi-page or multi-line document. I want the offset to stay on the line it was before I replaced it.
