Describe the issue:

The cursor jumps to the start of code chunk in visual mode of Quarto after switching back from another screen/window. The problem is also reported under the Quarto repository ( https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto/issues/340). A video is provided there.

However, it was explained by jjallaire there that it is a VS Code issue and cannot be fixed on their part. I hope the positron team can fix this issue as you can deal directly with the internal code.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Start a quarto document
2. Switch to visual mode
3. Start a code chunk (R/Python/Latex...)
4. Input some random code and click somewhere random in the code chunk so the cursor is not at the beginning
5. Switch to another window/screen (e.g. with Alt+Tab in Windows)
6. Switch back to Quarto
7. Cursor is at the start of the chunk

Expected or desired behavior:

When switching back from another window, the cursor remains where it was

Were there any error messages in the UI, Output panel, or Developer Tools console?

No

Reproduce the issue in a Quarto document using visual mode, a code chunk, and a second window, following the listed Windows steps. Compare the behavior with the linked Quarto issue and verify that returning to Positron preserves the cursor position rather than moving it to the chunk start.
