Scrollbar resets to selected checkbox

I have set up a Grid inside a ScrollViewer. At runtime, based on the results of a search I dynamically build a number of checkboxes which I add as Children to the Grid. This all works fine.

But, when I select a CheckBox, the ScrollViewer moves and places the checked box to the top of the view.

For instance, if the box I want to check is in the middle of the view, when I check it, it moves to the top of the view while its place in the overall list remains the same.

What I have tried:

<ScrollViewer Grid.Row="0" Margin="5,5,5,5" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1" >
           <Grid x:Name="InnerGrid1" >
           </Grid>
       </ScrollViewer>

What does "select" mean? You can "scroll" (or select) any number of ways.

When I check a CheckBox, the scrollbar moves down so that the item that I checked moves to the top of the window. I do not want the scrollbar to move at all when an item is checked.

Are you adding Grid.RowDefinitions to your grid for each checkbox? I created a simple window with a grid in a scrollviewer, and cannot duplicate the behavior you describe. I didn't dynamically add the checkboxes, but when I click a checkbox, the scrollviewer does not scroll it to the top.
