tabby: Mouse not working on Windows

I’m runing vim in Windows 10 using the WSL Ubuntu installation.

In Terminus, set mouse=a does not seem to enable mouse controls. However, in the Windows cmd console it works (obviously after typing bash).

Windows Terminal is currently shipping its own version of conhost.exe and ConPTY API, which are different from what is available in the OS. I’ve looked at integrating these in Tabby but it looks like a ton of work 😕

Thanks @wolf99. Only stale because no one has worked on it.

I also just tried it again yesterday and was planning to raise the issue.

Scrolling the terminal window also does not work.

Any updates on this? Mouse clicks and scrolls still seem to be unregistered on WSL (Ubuntu 18.04).

still dont working

So I just noticed that mouse support is working in Tabby 1.0.158 with WSL (Pengwin/WLinux) on Windows 11. I don’t think mouse support works on the same Tabby version on my Windows 10 machine, so I’m guessing that Microsoft finally ported the changes into conhost on Windows 11.
