when manually saving a document, or when geany is set to autosave and does so, geany moves focus/document scroll location to last/current cursor location instead of maintaining current scroll location. 

This means that when you are working on a long document and have scrolled up to examine something 300 lines up from last cursor location, geany will autosave and move document scroll location down 300 lines making it difficult to even know where you are sometimes. It can also make you forget what you were trying to do as the code in view may be the reminder. It took me a minute to even figure out what geany was doing when this kept happening. 

It would be nice if geany would either leave focus alone when saving or remember where i was in a document instead of forcibly moving me to the cursor location. :)

thanks
