Vertical scroll not working in Eclipse/PyDev

Question

I updated today to the latest version of PyDev (2.7.2), everything went smooth, I restarted Eclipse and then the vertical scroll in the PyDev editor stoped working. The scrollbar is moving, but the text is not scrolling. The horizontal scroll works though. This happens only with python files. When I open a text file or some other kind of file (not .py) scrolling works fine. Does anyone has any idea why this is happening and maybe how this can be fixed?

Answer 1

Scrolling didn't work for me after updating to Ubuntu 15.10 (Eclipse 4.5.1, and PyDev 4.4.0).

Resolved after setting: Preferences --> PyDev --> Editor --> Overview Ruler Minimap --> Show vertical scrollbar

Answer 2

Same thing happened to me. For now I uninstalled the latest version and reinstalled PyDev 2.7.1.2012100913. This is done on Eclipse Help->Install New Software->What is already installed? Here you must uninstall PyDev. Then you have to go back to Help->Install New Software choose PyDev on the Work with combobox and uncheck the Show only the latest versions of available software option. Now you can install any older version with a working vertical scroll.
