I'm using a Windows 11 laptop and scrolling with the touchpad in MUSHclient doesn't seem to work right. It seems like it's trying to scroll, and sometimes moves a few lines, but then sometimes jumps back.

It's only the combination of MUSHclient and the touchpad that does this. Everywhere else (that I've noticed anyway) the touchpad scrolls fine. With my mouse plugged in, the scroll wheel works fine. But for some reason, MUSHclient and the touchpad just don't get along.

Has anyone else encountered this? A forum search found other people having scroll issues but I didn't see anyone having this particular one. I don't actually know if this is a MUSHclient bug or a Windows one.

FWIW I don't recall any such issue. To clarify about the problem, are you scrolling the main output window?

I'm using version 5.06. I just reinstalled on my new computer a few weeks ago. The old one didn't have a touchpad so I can't compare.

I can reproduce this issue on my laptop running Windows 10. I'll look into it.

I was honestly expecting this to be completely unique. It just felt on-brand for me. XD

It's honestly just a minor inconvenience; I just use pgup pgdn if I don't want to plug in my mouse. But hey, if you can find out what's causing it, then rad.
