From Tor: When I F12 my way down the error list after a build, it will scroll the view when necessary to show the next error. But it only makes the hyperlink line itself visible. For example, the error may be this: make the hyperlink line (e.g. ImportPagePanel.java:2099: cannot resolve symbol But WHICH symbol is it it couldn't resolve? That's show on the NEXT line in the output window, but it doesn't scroll to make that line visible! It think the ensure-visible method in the output window should ensure that not only the target line, but a window of 2 lines above it or below it should be made visible as well.
fixed in trunk, enjoy.
