Most applications with scrollable content seem to define the "large
jump" distance as about a screenful of content. You can see this in long
pages in Settings and documents in Notepad.

We just weren't configuring ScrollBar here.

🎉Windows Terminal Preview v1.3.2382.0 has been released which incorporates this pull request.:tada:

Handy links:

• Release Notes
• Store Download

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

A bit OT but is there a difference between a store download and a GitHub download?

Thanks!

• Vince

[Dustin L. Howett (DHowett)]

Nope!

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

Thanks. How about "Windows Terminal" vs. "Windows Terminal Preview"?

[Dustin L. Howett (DHowett)]

Preview is one month "newer" than stable. Preview gets features faster, but might be a little less polished.

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

I have a lot of trouble with the store. Where's the preview on GitHub?

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

I got it from GitHub. It's installed. I can launch it from the install dialog (doesn't seem to find my settings.json). WT.TXT still opens v1.1.2233.

[Dustin L. Howett (DHowett)]

1. preview uses a separate settings file because it is a separate program
2. you can go to "manage app execution aliases" to configure which version of terminal wt runs

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

Thanks, Dustin! "Manage app execution aliases" ... that works. I had never been there before. Is there an "ms-settings:" way to get there? I dislike the start button!

And (as you know) this issue is fixed.

[Dustin L. Howett (DHowett)]

That's the only settings page that there is not a ms-settings link for. Seriously. I checked. I wanted to put it in our documentation. 😄

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

Thanks again. Is there a ms-settings link for apps (that would be pretty close)? Where can I find a comprehensive list of ms-settings links?

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

Never mind. "ms-settings:appsfeatures" works. And I found a list of URIs on the web.

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

If the app execution alias points to one, how do I run the other (easily)?

[Mike Griese (zadjii-msft)]

From the commandline? There's not an easy way. From the Start Menu, it's easy enough

Out of curiosity, why would you want to be able to run both preview and stable side-by-side?

[Vincent Fatica (vefatica)]

I wouldn't call the Start Menu easy. But I can automate that with any of a few apps that send keystrokes.

Why run them both ... just because I can. :-)

I noticed one difference between the stable version and the preview. Starting the stable version (1.1.2233.0) causes the "LicenseManager" and "ClipSVC" services to start. Starting the preview does not cause those services to start. I am curious about that.

Is there any Win32 API interface with the app execution alias mechanism?

I noticed one difference between the stable version and the preview. Starting the stable version (1.1.2233.0) causes the "LicenseManager" and "ClipSVC" services to start. Starting the preview does not cause those services to start. I am still curious about that.
