Selection resets when text start scrolling due to mouse at top or bottom of the window #2246
Comments
Can you please give precise, step-by-step instructions to reproduce? Description like "text start scrolling" is vague and ambiguous: Why is it scrolling? Is it because you're extending the selection? Or dragging the scrollbar? Or new input appearing in the bottom? No matter which one I've tried out of these, I couldn't reproduce the issue. Please give us the Tilix and VTE version numbers, too.

Sure, sorry about the vague defect report. Here is more detailed description of how I can make this happen:
The expected behavior is that that highlighted text continue to extend over the text scrolling down, allowing the selection of text above the original view. Here is the output of tilix --version Tilix Special Features Also I am on a fully updated Ubuntu 24.04 install. Please let me know if you need any other info. Thanks! |
Thanks for the details! Unfortuately I'm unable to reproduce the issue, the selection remains as expected. Tried on both Ubuntu 24.04 and 24.10. Does an app perhaps continuously produce output in that terminal? VTE is known to have problems with that case. However, your report doesn't seem to be about this case. Do you face the same problem in |
No, this happens when the prompt is available. For example after listing a large directory and I try select more than a screen full of the listing. Gnome-terminal works as expected, I am able to select more than a screen full of text. This machine has 3 monitors, configured through the gnome settings app. I haven't made too many changes to the default gnome desktop settings. Two that I know I have made are disabling animations with I am about to start a new install on a different machine, I'll install tilix early in the process to see if I can discover if/when I observe this behavior and report back. |
The issues are mostly with Gnome, I think Tilix is lagging behind Gnome. |
When I select some text and drag the selection region past the top or bottom of the Tilix window the selecting will be reset once the text start scrolling.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
