Description

Describe the Feature You Want

When a lot is going on it can be hard to jump to the bottom and have it stick and follow the log.

Current Behavior

You have to scroll it to the bottom but it keeps jumping and staying put. Only when it's quiet can I get it to stick there and follow.

Why Do You Want This?

Because it's not as usable as it could be.

Additional context
A simple jump to bottom might do the trick.

Research direction

Start by locating the log viewer and its current scrolling behavior. Reproduce the issue while log output is active, then verify that a simple jump-to-bottom control keeps the view following new output and remains usable when activity is continuous.
