Bug - Activated Links Land at Bottom of Target Block instead of Top

For example, if you Click on a Link to the Heading for a Block, it Results in a View starting from the Bottom of the Block.
IOW, the Landing is based on the bottom of the Block starting from the Bottom of the Window, as opposed to Landing at the Top of the Block starting from from the Top of the Window.
Result: If Block is longer than the Window Size, the actual Target is not seen because it's above and outside the Window, making it hard to know where you are. You have to scroll up to reveal the Highlighted Task that was the Target for the Link.

Thank you for the clarification, we will look into this.

ryantaskade: Any news on when this might get fixed? It's very confusing to the User, since the Task used for the link is not visible when the Task/Section is longer than the window/screen size. Thanks

Kairos: Hi there we have no ETA on this fix. The offset and snapping behaviour is an issue of our current list view. We have put this on hold.

Hi there, i can't seem to replicate the issue you are facing, was the link you used obtained from "copy link" in the triple dot menu next to the heading? If not, which link are you referring to?

ryantaskade: Hi Ryan, I use Internal Project Links quite a bit to make "Help docs/Projects" easier to Reference. I type "/link" at the end of the Heading I wish to link to and copy the link this way. This bug occurs with Links to a Block that requires scrolling to view the entire block.
So, for example,
1) "/link" the Heading of Block #6 and apply it to selected Text in Block #1.
2) Click on the Linked Text in Block #1,
3) Landing for the linked Heading is NOT on the Heading. Instead it's somewhere below the Heading of Block #6. The Block #6 Heading is not Visible in the Window (if the Block is longer than your Screen View), so you're not exactly sure where you've landed until you scroll up to reveal the originally targeted Heading.
Also, the Original Link in Block #1 becomes dead for a time after it's been used. So, if I return to Block #1 to read further and I wish to again return to Block #6, the Text link in Block #1 is dead. If I Reload (Command-R) the page, I am returned to the weird spot below the Block #6 Heading, and the Heading is again Highlighted, as such linked Tasks become after being triggered.
