Description
In general I fold all the methods in my classes, then when I try to add a new method and start writing, the autocomplete appears and the rest of the methods get unfolded and the editor scrolls up randomly, so I lose the line where I was adding code. The cursor is still there so I press the keyboard arrows and the editor scrolls back again to the place I was editing, but this behavior is annoying.
Any solution?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior while Java methods are folded and autocomplete is opened during editing. Trace whether autocomplete triggers method unfolding or an editor scroll change; done means the folded methods stay folded and the view remains at the editing location.
