Does this happen because Obsidian hadn’t loaded the transclusions yet? Or do you also get a page jump when the note is already rendered?

It reminds me of the ‘page jump’ behaviour I reported earlier here (when opening a note) and here (when navigating back/forward).

I get this every time I try this, even if I try this many times in the same program instance.

Although yes, I am pretty sure that the root cause is a race condition between the scrolling command and the transclusions above the viewport being rendered.

Is this still happening? are you referring to reading mode?
