Describe the bug

A clear and concise description of what the bug.

While I am typing code, the view jumps around because folded code unfolds, then refolds after I type a bit more.

I have verified that the viewport changes do not happen if the go extension is disabled. In addition, it still happens when all extensions other than vscode-go are disabled.

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

The lines in view stay stable, only changing when additional lines are added. Code folding/unfolding does not happen unless I trigger it (mouse over gutter symbol, fold/unfold hotkey, or arrows move the cursor into folded region and force it to unfold).

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open a go file. Scroll to the bottom. Fold the last function in the file.
2. Paste the following below it:

func parmHelp(_ context.Context, args []string) error {
	// TODO
	return nil
}

4. Create a new line before // TODO and start typing if len(args)==0{}
5. View jumps as folded code unfolds/refolds for no reason.

Screenshots or recordings

If applicable, add screenshots or recordings to help explain your problem.

Viewport jumping is something I've experienced a lot, with many different versions of vscode. Every other time it's happened, it went away when I updated the various components (vscode/vscode-go/gopls/etc) while troubleshooting. This is the only time it's remained after an update to the latest versions.

The other times it happened, I didn't have a folded function visible on-screen. I'm uncertain whether anything in the file was folded - it wasn't something I considered - but if so it was off-screen.

It interrupts my flow and I find it very frustrating.

Hello! Unfortunately I have not been able to reproduce this issue and will need some more information.
Please enable gopls logs, and see if you observe any particular requests when the viewport is jumping around.
Also, I see you have go.alternateTools in settings, but do you have any other settings? Even if they aren't gopls-related, it could be helpful to reproduce. Thank you!

[mpictor]

I didn't have any other go* settings (until adjusting logging just now).

Note that a fair amount of that stuff is for extensions that are currently disabled (pio, gitlens, etc).
My workspace config has nothing but folders, file associations (thanks cpp), and circuitpython config. The folder settings for this project are empty.

For the following log, I folded text, inserted an empty line, then cleared the log. I then typed two letters on the empty line - i and f. The latter triggered code unfolding.

I was a little surprised to see this much output when verbose logging is not set, but if it helps I can repeat with verboseLogging set to true.

Thank you very much for sharing your logs and settings! My guess is that this result is causing problems:
[Trace - 15:07:59.836 PM] Received response 'textDocument/foldingRange - (370)' in 0ms. Result: null
Perhaps the folding range is null due to the temporary syntax error and the editor is not able to handle this gracefully due to some specific condition? I am still not able to reproduce the case where foldingRange is null, but I have a few other ideas for steps to try:

1. Remove setting "editor.showFoldingControls": "always" and/or "editor.wordWrap": "on" and see if there's any effect on the behavior.
2. Try downgrading your version of gopls / go.
