Terminals now "scroll lock", they retain their scrolled back position if new data comes in.

However, new incoming data will still clear the current text selection making it awkward to highlight and copy and paste logs.

This is more of an upstream issue in xterm.js for which a PR exists.

This is quite annoying.

@foot have you got a reference for the upstream PR?

Hmm. We did actually update to the latest xterm.js (2.9.2) in #2900. But this issue still exists, even though the upstream issue is closed :(

Hmm. I've just tried it again, and now it does work. Tried container shell, container logs and pod logs, in both FF and Chrome, both locally and in Weave Cloud.
