Using Putty, does not have usable scroll bars

[ConEmu]

OS version: Win8x64 ConEmu version: 130427 Far version (if you are using Far Manager): No Bug description Scrolls show, when using Putty, does not have usable scroll bars. Steps to reproduction 1. In settings, Main > Appearance, set Scroll bars to: Show.

2. Open a CMD tab.
3. Open a second tab for Putty and SSH into a server.
4. To produce lines to scroll with, run: for((i=1;i<=100;i++)); do echo "Line $i"; done
5. Note that you now have two scroll bars on the right (see ScreenShot001)
6. Switch to the CMD tab, and then back to the Putty tab.
7. Note that now you only have on scroll bar that is grayed out and does not let you scroll (see ScreenShot002).

Note that if in settings, Main > Appearance, set Scroll bars to: Auto, then this problem does not occur.

Why you asking me about it...

Look, putty is GUI application! ConEmu can't do anything with scrolling it! Setup your putty!

Hi,

I'm not sure there is anything that can be done in Putty to correct this behavior. ConEmu works properly if in settings, Main > Appearance, set Scroll bars to: Auto. It only does not work properly when ConEmu settings are set to Main > Appearance, set Scroll bars to: Show. That's the only time the double scroll bars show up and then stop working when you switch tabs. It seems like a ConEmu issue and not a Putty issue to me.

By the way great product! Thank you so much for creating this and actively supporting it. If this does not get fixed I can easily work with it with the scroll bars: Auto setting.

Thanks! -EWG

Attached are three screenshots:

• ScreenshotA.png shows the initial state where two scrollbars are there. The inner scrollbar works for scrolling.
• ScreenshotB.png shows how the inner scrollbar disappears after toggling to a different tab and then back again.
• ScreenshotC.png shows newlines would would allow for scroll, but the scrollbars on the right do not work.

Thanks, EWG

Sorry about that - my bad! I swear I did that, but it must have been on another computer.

Yep, I'm seeing the issue fixed in 140327 now. Thanks! -EWG
