The selection highlight is preserved until the screen underneath it is repainted. If you are using a full-screen tui like Selecting while scrolling the wheel works fine for me here in raw wezterm. I suspect that you are using a tui multiplexer inside wezterm, and that that is the heart of your issue. |

It works fine in raw Wezterm. wezterm-scroll-bisa.mp4However, the same functionality is not present in Bacon. wezterm-scroll-tidak-bisa.mp4Is there any workaround for this issue, or are there alternative approaches to select and copy the entire paginated/scrolled output? |

If you are using a full-screen tui like
tmux,zellij,vimand so on, scrolling with the mouse wheel often is translated to the application repainting the screen for itself, which will clear the highlighted section on the screen.Selecting while scrolling the wheel works fine for me here in raw wezterm.
