When using Power Automate on a 4K screen, everything fits perfectly. However, when expanding a Switch action with multiple cases, the selection of a case causes the entire flow to move out of the viewport and centers the selected case on the screen. This behavior is problematic for the following reasons:
Unnecessary Re-centering: If the Switch action is expanded, it automatically centers the first case (out of 9 and the default) on the screen. This pushes all other steps of the flow to the right, out of the screen's view.
Viewport Displacement: When the Switch action is expanded, the flow is displaced by approximately 1000px or more, making it difficult to view and interact with other steps.
Ineffective Content Visibility: The automatic re-centering does not improve content visibility. If the button to expand the Switch action is already in the viewport, it should simply expand without shifting the entire flow.
Steps to Reproduce:
Open Power Automate on a 4K screen.
Create or open a flow with a Switch action containing multiple cases.
Expand the Switch action.
Observe that the flow re-centers on the first case, pushing other steps out of the viewport.
Expected Behavior:
When expanding the Switch action, it should simply expand to show all cases without re-centering the selected case or displacing the flow. The viewport should remain static, allowing users to see and interact with all steps without unnecessary movement.
There are many annoying things. I would definitely open a bug case if you want or put up a suggestion for change.
