Thanks, the above is already a lot of valuable info.
I have a couple of follow up questions:
. Can you show the entire value returned by Fpos_visible_in_window_p
when its call from Fposn_at_point returns, when this problem is
reproduced? If you load the file .gdbinit that is located in the
Emacs src directory, then displaying the return value is simple:
type "pp tem" at the GDB prompt, after Fpos_visible_in_window_p
returns.
. You say "pdf-tools (and doc-view) let you scroll the buffer, but
never move point" -- can you point me to code in pdf-tools that
does this?
Thanks.
