Problem

The sidebar navigation sections flicker and shift position while scrolling. The items appear to move up and down in a jerky, zig-zag manner, resulting in an unstable and distracting user experience.

Current Behavior

When scrolling through the sidebar, the section items do not remain visually stable. Instead, they repeatedly shift slightly upward and downward, creating a flickering or jittering effect. This makes navigation feel inconsistent and can make it difficult to focus on the desired section.

Expected Behavior

Sidebar sections should remain stable and maintain their positions smoothly while scrolling. No flickering, jumping, or unexpected movement should occur during user interaction.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the application.
  2. Navigate to a page containing the sidebar navigation.
  3. Scroll through the sidebar sections using the mouse wheel or trackpad.
  4. Observe the sidebar items flickering and shifting up/down in a jerky manner.

Screenshots

If applicable, attach a screen recording or screenshots demonstrating the flickering behavior.

Environment

  • Browser: Chrome (or applicable browser)
  • Version: [Specify Version]
  • OS: [Specify Operating System]

Additional Context

The issue appears consistently while scrolling through the sidebar. The movement resembles a brief up-and-down "zig-zag" or jitter effect, suggesting a potential rendering, layout recalculation, or animation-related issue.
