Thank you for your bug report, it's pretty weird it's jumping like that. Do you have any error in the journalctl log? Is that specific to that directory? Does it make a difference if you change the zoom setting?

When items are displayed in icon view (as opposed to list view) and there are more items than can be displayed in the window, clicking an item can cause the display to scroll so that the item is no longer under the cursor and so double-clicking is impossible. This only seems to happen if the display has been scrolled down somewhat and clicking the item then causes it to be scrolled to the bottom of the window. In list view the item can be double-clicked without a problem so this is a workaround.
