Hi @jmrussell, when you enter insert mode the paste window opens as expected behavior.

• Is this happening after you enter insert mode? (if so this is expected behavior)
  • If so, you can use esc or close the window to return back to the scrollback view.
• What is your desired behavior?

I guess it's the position of the paste window. When i open the scrollback buffer for the last command and try to yank something it opens the paste window at the top or sometimes in the middle of the screen whereas when I open the whole scrollback buffer with ctrl+shift+h and yank somethin, it show the paste window at the bottom as expected.

@paulwyszynski thanks for clarifying. That makes sense, I'll take a look at the logic for window position and see if I can improve this.
