Implement faux scrolling #550
Comments
@3goliad Let me rephrase that, certain applications are not handling my mouse's scroll wheel. |
@PaulBGD Oof, I was hoping nobody saw that. My apologies, I read your issue a little too quickly. |
Well they're the latest versions of both provided for Ubuntu 16.10, even if they're a little outdated I'd think that it'd be good for alacritty to have support for them anyways. |
I'm not sure whether or not this is relevant, but this debian issue references an issue with scrolling using the ncurses version provided in 16.10. Which terminal emulators are displaying the correct behavior? |
Gnome Terminal and Xfce Terminal both work correctly. Doing
in both lets me use the mouse wheel to scroll, however in alacritty it doesn't work. |
I can reproduce this. I can also scroll |
VTE library used for example by GNOME and XFCE terminals emulates scrolling for applications without mouse support. From its CHANGELOG:
|
It seems other terminals implement a hack to make this happen. But
So the question is whether @jwilm want that hack to be implemented also in alacritty? |
Since it seems to be standard behavior in other emulators, we should probably add it. |
Well my example uses two examples. I can use the mouse wheel to scroll inside of Vim, but scrolling inside of
htop
orman
doesn't work.Let me know if you need any more information.
