If the source code is wider than what fits in the main window (and part of the last word on the line is not visible, but it's still not wrapped to the next line) and I scroll down, at some point the view jumps to the right, so that the beginning of the lines is not visible anymore. I believe I only have this issue since the latest update.

  New user here! This problem directly spoiled my experience. I got invisible line starts quite a lot while experimenting with the IDE. Sometimes even when the line is not that long anyway. Looked like it had to do with the line numbering gutter in that case.

  I am also having this issue. It's really obnoxious, and seems to be happening constantly now! I tried to make my lines shorter and the window wider, to no avail.

  I am also having this issue. Sometimes it happen after switching between desktops. The trick to fix it is to resize the window.

  I'm experiencing this constantly while switching between windows or desktops. Impossible to scroll horizontally and get the left part of the text in sight again. I found that selecting text to the left will help but it's realy annoying.

  Having trouble to reproduce it, but I'll try with window resizing as suggested.

  I am annoyed with these contents scrolling out of view continuously, finally I was able to reproduce at least one case. Check the video:

  Basically, when auto-complete suggest something, under circumstances the contents scroll to the left a go out of view. At that point scrolling the contents is not possible so one is annoyed.

  I would really like this to be fixed with uttermost priority.

  Thanks, Marc, for the video. That is very helpful. I'll try to fix it for the next update.

  In my case it happens each time I switch to a different window with Cmd+Tab or scroll between Desktops (if in full screen mode).

  Could you please consider fixing this? I think it's a pretty serious bug to not be able to see text in a text editor.

  I'm happy to help with reproducing if needed.
