Hi,

I'd love to have a toggle for the 'scroll on output' option in the menu so that I can quickly and easily disable/enable it.

Use case: normally I have it enabled but quite commonly I'm running a long-running process which generates output (e.g: video encoding, rsync) and I want to be able to scroll up while this is running. To do that I have to disable this option, and then to get back to my normal state of affairs I need to re-enable it. It would be great if I could just use a toggle in the menu (Terminal menu seems like the logical place) rather than having to go into preferences. Even better, if it appeared in the menu I could assign a keyboard shortcut to it.

Thanks!

Hi! Thanks for the suggestion but this has already been implemented in git master: https://git.xfce.org/apps/xfce4-terminal/commit/?id=841f79cae72363b28fda2f125419da731ef2cc1d
