Embedded form scrolling too far on subsequent pages (Elementor)

I have a very simple multipage form embedded on a Page in Elementor on a WP site. Each click of Next replaces the current page with the next one. It works fine except that when the page reloads it to scrolls too far down on the next page so the top of the form, including the form section heading and the text above it in the Elementor block, and sometimes the first questions on the new page, aren't visible. It even scrolls down past the submission confirmation message. I think it might be scrolling to the bottom of the Elementor block rather than the top, i.e., scrolling far enough to show the bottom of the block regardless of what's above in the block. I'm not sure that's what it's doing, though. If it would scroll to the top of the block instead it would be fine but I haven't found where to designate that. It seems it would do that by default anyway. If it's the way Formidable works in Elementor blocks then it would do this with every form I create so I need to figure this out. Screenshots attached showing where it scrolls to and where it should have scrolled to. Thanks! Mike

This is a community volunteer forum for Formidable Forms, not Elementor or the themes you may be using with Formidable. I suggest you look for plugin or jQuery conflicts. Failing that, open a support ticket with Strategy 11, Elementor, or hire a developer that would be willing to take a look at your site.

This problem is specific to Formidable as it doesn't happen with any other blocks or plugins we've used on this site over several years. I thought it might be something Formidable users had run into before. I found a previous post on this forum that was very similar but with a cause that wouldn't apply to this incident so it seemed to me to be appropriate to ask other Formidable users if they'd seen this or not. It was not my intention to ask for help with anything other than Formidable but just to ask the experienced users if they'd seen it or not. If not, fine. I'll look elsewhere.
