Bug 84219 List.showSelection() scrolls list although item already visible
Reported: 2005-02-02 07:59:05 | Status: resolved fixed

The javadoc of a showSelection states that the list will not be scrolled if the item is already visible. This holds true for win32 but at least on my linux box the list is scrolled(until selected item is at the top) although the item is visible already
