Eclipse editor autoscroll inconvenience

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

I am typing line by line in the maximized java editor. Soon the code
grows beyond one page, so the editor scrolls upward automatically.

The problem is that my caret (i.e. the blinking prompt) is always at the
*bottom* of the editor. There is no margin at the bottom so I'm forced
to look down to the edge of the editor, and I cannot see the things
under the line I'm tying (e.g. brackets, finally clauses, etc.).

Is there a way to let the caret have a margin from the bottom, so that
my eyes can have a more comfortable angle and view?

Regards
Warren Tang
