(Solved) Scrolling without losing my place

When reading a book via Calibre's viewer, I usually scroll down by whole pages (PgDown key). This scrolls down by a whole screenful, which is perfect, as the next line to be read now sits conveniently at the top of the reader window. This makes it easy to keep my place.

However, when there is less than one page left to the end of the section/chapter, the end of the chapter is made flush with the bottom of the viewer window. As a result, the first line of the new virtual pages happens to land in a random place in the viewer window (where exactly depends on how far the end of the chapter is). Therefore, I have to scan the window to locate where the next line to be read is. This is a bit distracting, as it breaks reading continuity.

Is there any workaround to make sure that when scrolling down, the first line of the new page always ends up at the top of the viewer window?
