After the answer in #3017 and a little bit of testing I found out that when
mouse_mode
istrue
both zellij and neovim can interact with the mouse (it works just like regular GUI windows where you can focus/unfocus a window and at the same time click some buttons inside it). But withmouse_mode false
nothing will work. Hold on, the MMB (middle mouse button) does! Withmouse_mode true
it didn't work (only in Neovim).Without zellij I can do both: use MMB for pasting text and interact with Neovim, but with zellij I now have to decide which feature I value the most. I don't like that. Can this be fixed? This will make zellij even more transparent (in terms of terminal interaction) than now.
P.S. At least in Linux and at least in X11 you can use "primary selection" or you can use "clipboard" (from
man xclip
). There is also "secondary selection" but I think no one has either implemented it to work, or it's just not popular/useful.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
