Why does Xcode's editor jump upwards whenever I place a Breakpoint?

Whenever I place a breakpoint down in Xcode 3.2.1, for whatever reason the editor likes to jump upwards by 100-200+ lines, losing my place in the source code. This appears to only occur in projects that I've been worked on for a little while, opening/closing them several times. New projects don't have the issue, but eventually develop it.

Any idea on what's causing this (user error, software glitch), and ideally how to fix it? Cheers!

I have just installed the same, and it is jumping for me as well, especially noticable when I have folded code. Did you ever get an answer for this? Cheers.

Unfortunately no. It appears to be worse if you have the same file opened in two windows at once, but it can still occur when only a single window is opened.My hunch is that it's a glitch which probably won't get fixed in Xcode 3.x, especially since Xcode 4.0 will probably be released in a few months. I'd be surprised if Xcode 4.0 had the issue, but we'll have to wait and see. :)

This appears to be a glitch in Xcode 3.x. Perhaps when Xcode 4.x gets released Apple will fix this problem.
