  Don't send the scroll to the bottom of the window
  
  This occurs when the UI is first loaded, as well as on every single folder action. Closing or opening a folder sends the scroll to the bottom of the window. I mentioned this in B4 and was blown off as “not an issue”, but I'm sorry… for usability, this is serious. It makes the SS UI extremely difficult to use.
  
  Don't pre-expand the folders in the SS UI
  
  It makes the SS UI really difficult to use when you have large databases. The Pre-5.1 behavior of closed folders is much more user friendly.
  
  (For instance, I have a DB with > 50 tables that I use on a daily basis and sync fairly frequently)

  What I wrote then, was that whether the scroll was up or down when first opening the GUI was no issue to me. But I did agree that expanding an item should not triger any change in scroll position. Sorry if I did not expres myself clear enough.

  Both the issues are by design. I will discuss it with my fellow developers and reply back. Probably we can keep things in preferences.

  I am not able to reproduce the problem while opening a folder. It indeed scrolls down to the bottom on closing of a folder and this will be fixed in v5.1 RC.

  I have put this issue in the TO-DO list for v5.2.
