Turn off Snap-to-Page Using "Add Text Box" Function

Hi all,

I'm using Acrobat Pro DC on Windows 10.

I have a document where I've toyed with the margins quite a bit to center it around images (PowerPoint slides), and to add extra margin space to one side to take notes. In this document the height of each page is quite a bit smaller than a normal letter size document because there is only one slide per page. I think this is causing the program to get confused when I click on a page to create a text box. Sometimes I will click on a new page, then the little watch icon will come up for an instant to show it's loading, and it automatically centers the screen to where I want to put the text box on the right page (which I don't really like anyway, I'd rather it not move the screen at all), but other times it jumps to a completely random page. It could be a few pages up or a few pages down (however the text box is still in the right place on the page I clicked, I just have to scroll back to it each time, often losing my place).

Is there a way to turn off the function that makes Acrobat "snap-to" the new page that you click? Sorry if it's really obvious. I could not find the right words to find it in the forums.

Thanks!
