As described in this comment, I noticed that the Search->Go to... dialog and typing do not reveal the current position if it’s in a hidden line range. This seems to me to further highlight the importance of creating a “Make current position visible” command.

@PeterJones Thanks. Changing the rendering mode to GDI, DirectWrite (retain frames), or DirectWrite (Draw to GDI DC) seems to stop the issue.
