If my cursor is in the middle of the screen and I open the terminal (ALT+ENTER) then it pushes the code|cursor up to the top.
This is so annoying. And I have no idea how to search for that in the settings.
Any idea?

I have tested with versions 2017, 2018, 2020: https://youtu.be/L7E0QYa7JR8
A temporary fix is to pull the tool window (for example the terminal) all the way to the top. If you now open the tool window the editor is completely covered and no more affected.
Here is a link to bug report: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-36031
Since (at least) PhpStorm 2022.2.3
(Did not check previous versions.)
you can set
terminal settings > view mode > undock
And then the weird scrolling is gone (finally).
