Strange split scrolling with vscode terminal

[rajinder-yadav]

Type: Bug

This is hard to explain so I created a video showing the problem. This has occured to a few times and not sure what is causing this, but it's messing up the terminal output.

This is also happening with the main editor window. It is supper annoying and I would treat this as a critical bug.

The following image shows the same black split line appearing as in the video.

This is not a bug. It is the sticky scroll feature. You can disable it through Settings if you want.

wow when a bug is a feature, for real! 😂 ... thanks I have disabled everywhere. How long has this feature been there?
