Briefly describe (1-2 sentences) the Bug you’re experiencing:

I am adding/editing subtasks on a task, with the task pane on the right and the list/board behind it (i.e have not TAB+Xed the task)

When I start typing the task pane unexpectedly scrolls down to the attachments section, but cursor focus remains in the text input up by the subtasks.

Steps to reproduce:  
Create a task, visible in two projects with custom fields and tags set, and with 4-6 images + 2 google docs attached. Paste in a list of subtasks from spreadsheet or document. Then add a subtasks between subtasks.

Browser version: Using ASANA Desktop App

EDIT - see this has been closed -not sure why - still happening in Asana App - should I open a new ticket - this ticket keeps being highlighted as a similar problem
