Wrong autoscrolling behaviour

Reported by: vitorg Owned by: somebody
Priority: major Milestone:
Component: guake Version: 0.3.1
Keywords: Cc:

Description

[Actions] 1. Open Guake terminal. 2. Type command with cyclic output, for example "ping google.com". 3. Wait until whole window fills with output and for each output scrollbar automatically scrolls down. 4. Scroll window up by mouse.

[Result] Window automatically scrolls down even when user needs to see previous output, so user can't do it until running comand stops

[Expected result] When user scrolls up manually quake must not automatically scroll window down until user scrolls down manually. Much of terminals has such behaviour, for example gnome-terminal, because it's very usable.

In the coming release of Guake (version 0.4.0) in the preferences menu there is an option for scrolling "on output".

If this option is on, it will have the behaviour you are encountering, else, the one you are expected :)

FYI, the release should be rather soon now :)

Cool! Looking forward :)

else, the one you are expected :)

I'm expected: autoscroll when window at the bottom and not scrolling in other case, is this what unchecked option "scrolling on output" does?

Yes it is :)

In case of mis-understanding, feel free to re-open this bug on 0.4.0
