Description Chris McQuilkin 2025-01-14 01:11:19 UTC 
SUMMARY
Issue with "clear scrollback and reset".  Just switched from CentOs to RH8 and the new konsole behaves differently than I am used to.  Previously choosing this option then launching a command, resulting a bunch of terminal output lines,  I could scroll back to the top of using the scrollbar and could view the command I just launched.  On RH8 I scroll to the top and it does not get all the way back to the command I launched.

Hi - I cannot reproduce this issue on a current version of Konsole (24.12.1), unless the result of a command exceeds the scrollback limit - set by default to 1000 lines, but editable from within the Profile settings > Scrolling section.

Could you please let us know if you are seeing the scrollback get cut off before its intended limit on an up-to-date Konsole version?

Thanks!

You were right it was the 1000 line options setting.  Sorry to bother you and please close the ticket. Thanks!!!
