[SOLVED] SSH: change how many lines to scroll with mouse wheel

Currently, when using the mouse wheel to scroll a terminal window, the content is moved up/down half a page per wheel tick. This makes content hardly readable when scrolling as the eyes easily lose the context because:





Could we have an option to set the number of lines to scroll each time the mouse wheel is used? IMO, that would be ideally 3-5 lines, like any text editor.

Hi,

You are perfectly right! Each tick causes a scroll of half the terminal height. I did not program this but I will change it. I could add an option, but I think it would be better to simply use the system wide property settings for the scroll wheel. I'd like to know what you think on this.

I agree with you, using the system property seems a better idea.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Hello,

The change has been done internally and it should be available in the next version of both RDM Free and RDM Enterprise.

Hi,

Any ETA on the next version of RDM Free?

I'm particularly interested in this new feature. :)

It's already in beta if you enable the auto-update for the Beta.
