### What issue do you have?

I'm using split view to edit markdown codes.

While I am editing texts, sometimes cursor jumps to the top of the document suddenly.  
So my document being typed is often messed up.  
I have not figured out the condition under which this happens yet.

Is there anybody who have experienced symptom like this ?

This is a known bug that happens when sync starts. See this Github issue: [Cursor jumps to top of editor when typing · Issue #8960 · laurent22/joplin · GitHub](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/8960)

Can I disconnect the sync. In order to avoid the bug?

For the accent bug, it is easy:

1. Create a text type H1 with accent like : Sólo

2. Create a link to this label.

3. Althoug the first time works ( sometimes either ) the next doesn't redirect to the linked text because it has accent. With the text H1 "Solo" it works.
