Automatically scrolls the notebook view to the cell that is currently executing — handy when you run a long notebook (Run All) and don't want to manually chase the running cell down the page.
Features
Follows execution: when a new cell starts running, the editor scrolls so it's visible.
One-click toggle button in the notebook toolbar to turn the behavior on/off, mirrored by a checkbox icon ($(check) / $(circle-large-outline)).
The setting also persists via jupyterAutoScroll.enabled in your user settings.
Usage
Open any .ipynb notebook.
Run a cell, or use "Run All".
The view follows the currently executing cell automatically.
Toggle the behavior via the checkbox-style button in the notebook toolbar (top of the editor), or via the Automatically enable/disable scrolling commands from the Command Palette.
