Hi All,

I'm looking for the behavior I have when I start far.exe /w without conemu but with high buffer  (140x5000) - I  press ctrl-o and scroll console with mouse wheel. 
It looks like conemu's bufferheight mode, which doesn't work in FAR for some reason..

And also it looks like FAR ignores my Options->Interface->Use mouse->No setting when run from ConEmu

Need to be checked. However, you may hover mouse on the right part of ConEmu window (scrollbar appears) and use mouse wheel.

Just tried. It didn't appear.

I also tried to start far /w-, disable mouse in far settings, and even renaming far.exe to something else (hoping conemu won't recognize it :)
In all cases no scrollbar appears, BufferHeight button doesn't work,  and wheel always navigates over files in panel (or over history when panels are off)

BTW wheel scrolling worked fine on cygwin bash, cmd.exe etc..

Of course, ConEmu can't show scrollbar, if there is no buffer in console. No scrollbar - no scrolling.
Press, for example, CtrlWinAltSpace to ensure.
And ConEmu does not disable (obviously) buffer itself.

And why there's buffer and scrolling for bash and cmd and no buffer for Far ? 
How can I get one? 

(Кстати можно и по-русски)

Проверяйте параметры запуска фара и его настройки.
Без ConEmu.xml и логов ничего точнее не скажу.

Проверил еще раз. Добавил фару опцию /w (раньше ее не было - my fault - sorry) - прокрутка появилась.
Но только при наведении на правый край. В cmd и в bash работает везде.
conemu.xml прилагается
conemu.xml

Логи не надо, разве что профиль фара

Профиль фара...
Тот же профиль и conemu.xml для соседнего топика "Cannot get shift/alt-enter macro to work in FAR"
