Description

Introduced by #28191.
Fixes #20764.

Currently, when you select any block that is even slightly out of view, the page will be automatically scroll the block so that the top of the block is visible.

This can be very disorientating especially when dealing with large blocks.

For example: clicking at the bottom of a large cover block would scroll the top into view and the bottom out of view.

Generally, we should not be scrolling the page at all when a block is selected by the user.

This PR only allows scrolling if the block is completely out of view (it couldn't have been selected by the user).

How has this been tested?

  • Click around the demo page with some blocks partly out of view. The page shouldn't scroll.
  • Select a block and scroll it out of view. Open the global inserter and insert a block. The inserted block should scroll into view.
  • Multi-select by Shift+ArrowKey and the extent of the selection should stay in view.
