PageUp PageDown doesn't work in terminal apps

Open sudomyju opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Describe the problem: PageUp PageDown doesn't work in terminal apps (specifically in vim) the PageUp and PageDown keys do nothing in terminal apps like vim (it is for sure the least problem with vim)

To Reproduce: run vim in tabby, pen file that exceeds terminal window, try scrolling it by PageUp, PageDown keys

In v182, PgUp/Down are bound to "scroll terminal one page up/down" by default - you can unbind / change them in Settings -> Hotkey

I have been facing the exact same issue, and I have noticed the following behavior which might provide a clue on the actual root cause of the problem:

  • Opening a VIM terminal
  • PageUp / PageDown hotkeys do not work, as stated
  • Unbinding the two hotkeys from "Scroll terminal one page up/down"
  • Binding back the two keys to "Scroll terminal one page up/down"
  • PageUp / PageDown hotkeys now work fine
  • Using any other key
  • PageUp / PageDown hotkeys do not work anymore

Hi, thank you for your answers ... there is something really weird with the passing the keys in. It doesn't seem that ctrl+t, ctrl+v, ctrl+x are bound to anything but they do not work in vim fzf window

perhaps, is there some thick to fix it or am I missing some cool concept of tabby that blocks the keys in fzf window?

I have a similar issue. In my case, I can use page up/down, but can't use home/end buttons. I found the hotkey really affects terminal behaviors. https://github.com/Eugeny/tabby/issues/6848

Unbinding those keys from the hotkeys section worked for me.
