Scroll outside or below content in Eclipse [duplicate] - eclipse

This question already has an answer here:
How can I get Eclipse to scroll past the bottom of the document?
(1 answer)
Closed 5 years ago.
I would like to be able to scroll further down in Eclipse, below the last line of content in the file.
A lot of editors/IDEs support this, IntelliJ and TextPad, for instance. Vim if enabled.
It's a bit annoying having to put 20 empty lines in the bottom of every file in order for the code I'm writing to appear in the middle of the screen.
Any suggestions?
I've only found a few hits on Google, that are old. And I'm not sure what this is named, so if you have a word for it please tell, as it will help me in my search.
As it seems it's not possible at the moment, I would like suggestions on how to best overcome this issue.
Thanks.

This is a known limitation, and there is a bug opened for this - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=362540. You can add your thoughts to the bug.

VS Code multiple views of same file WITHOUT splitting [duplicate]

VSCode Open new view into file

Closed 2 years ago.
Is there a way in Visual Studio Code to have multiple instances of the same file open, but without splitting the view?
(Sublime editor achieves this with "File > New View Into File")
Just press the icon next to the ... Icon (It looks like a split window), or press Ctrl + \*. I hope this answered your question! :D
Edit: Sorry, I didn't read the whole thing since I came to this post from the best text editor article, lol. I don't think there is a way of doing that. Though I think you can make it yourself if you want to.

Eclipse text render issue

I am using Eclipse Neon2 on Mac. Text in code editor has render problem and overlaps on scroll. When I select all the text (cmd+a) it re renders and solves the problem. But when I re scroll it overlaps again.
I couldn't find a solution on internet.
How can I solve this.
Please check the screenshot.
I think it is a bug in Eclipse 489383. There are plenty of similar issues were reported and closed as duplicated, but this one is still open and, as I understand, targeted for version 4.6. There is a simple workaround that has helped in some cases (in mine it did help): export GTK3=0 before starting eclipse.

Moving and vanishing lines of code; trouble with Eclipse's XML Editor
I have dev enviroment setup for Android development.
Problem arises when scrolling. Source code starts to appear with missing parts (like scroll event didn't correctly refresh view). When I select text, it restores it and after deselecting it becomes missing again.
I have dual monitors on win7, but this happens no matter dual display or single display.
Any ideas?
Tnx in advance.
This problem could potentially be solved by following the steps in this answer : Moving and vanishing lines of code; trouble with Eclipse's XML Editor
In short "Automatically format the XML edited by the visual layout editor" might be the source of the problem.

Xcode documentation links behave crazy [duplicate]

Xcode Developer Documentation Link Hover Jumps To Top

The links in Xcode documentation, that mean the methods in the "Tasks" for example,
when i only put the mouse on the links, then the page go up.
What happen to Xcode?
I've seen this on and off as well in the previous version of Xcode.
I haven't seen the problem in Xcode 3.2.1.
This is a duplicate of question 1288900.
It drives me crazy, too.
I found a simple work-around that hopefully works for you. Use the mouse and select some of the text on the page somewhere. That's it. For some reason, hovering over the links no longer makes the page snap to the top.
