[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] BUG

I think I have found a bug in Hypercard v 1.1 - any comments?

If you have a scrolling field (3 lines long to be concrete), type stuff into it
on each line, and then hit return and type summat on a further line (the 4th in
this case), then delete that again until the cursor is back on the old last
line (the third one again), it does not scroll up again so that all the lines
are visible, but the top one stays off (ie lines 2,3 are visible, plus an
empty one at the bottom). Now here is the really buggy bit - it IS NOT POSSIBLE
to use the scroll bar (arrows or box) to get the top line back! (You can get it
back with the I-Beam cursor though).
