Select two big files and open the Compare contents dialog (menu Files/Compare By Content).
Press F6 to enable Edit mode.
Press Ctrl-Home to go to the beginning of the left file.

Press Ctrl-End to go to the end of the right file.
Press Shift-Tab to get back to the left file.
Text IS scrolled into view when typing text or moving the cursor using Left/Right/Up/Down keys.
Text is NOT scrolled into view when cursor is moved using Home/End/Ctrl-Left/Ctrl-Right keys neither when context menu is activated using the Shift-F10/Context menu keys.
The context menu can appear outside the window of the Compare by contents dialog and can "fall of the screen" so it's not visible. See screen shot 1 and screen shot 2.
(Windows 98. Dependent of size of window, so resize Compare by contents window to a small size.)
(Solution in TC7 rc 4.1d: vertical coordinate of the context menu is limited to the current listbox.)

TC7rc5:
* Text is NOT scrolled into view when hitting the Up or Page Up or Ctrl+Page Up key(s) when the cursor is on the first line.
* Context menu works as designed (no scrolling, vertical coordinate of the context menu is limited to the current listbox).

This is normal. The text is scrolled only when the cursor is moved.
For all other keys than mentioned the text is scrolled also when the cursor is not moved.. (I prefer it this way because you do not always know exactly where the cursor is located)
