Limitless block content or unlimited scroll

Open ender1214 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

There seems to be a content limit in a block. After a certain line count, topmost lines are either no longer retained or the top of the scrollable view gets set to a specific line after a certain content volume

It would be nice if Wave allowed for "limitless" scrollable content. I use apps like Termius and PuTTy that always had this and it's always been used for large volume content (e.g., tailing a frequently updated files like logs.).

It could be configurable (e.g., max line count) and/or toggle-able.

Thanks.

will definitely add a setting for customizing the number of lines of scrollback so we can make it larger. will have to see what the implications of unlimited scrollback is though for performance.

you can now increase the terminal scrollback size up to 10000 by setting the term:scrollback configuration option. i know this isn't the full fix you want, but putting it here as partial progress.
