      I am editing text in a text box at the bottom of a page. When I view the entire page, the box is too small so I zoom in & that's where the problem starts. As I start to type, the view on the screen jumps to the top of the document and away from the text box so that I can't see what I've typed.

      I moved the text box to the top and fixed the typing – it didn't jump views from there – and then moved it back down when I was done. This was a quick fix since I was in a hurry. I will have to do a lot of these, and am hoping not to have to move the box around each time – it's already in place on all the documents.

      Ideas?

      Hard to say what's going on there, but here's one idea: Instead of editing the text in that tiny frame, select the frame and then choose Edit > Edit in Story Editor. You can edit text in the story editor window and just see how it changes in the little frame.
