Further information

When I edit a file with neovim in Zellij the mouse is not captured by neovim (visual selection etc).

I don’t know if it should be reported in #448

@PhML - thanks for reporting this... could you provide some more info about how to reproduce this? Is this a specific plugin or version, or? Because when I try to reproduce this with my local neovim and try to mark things with the mouse outside Zellij, it marks them normally through the terminal emulator... am I missing something or doing something differently?

I have similar issues (I think), but I assume that will be resolved once the mouse support is finished. The terminal emulator gets the mouse selection, but neovim itself doesn't seem to get all the events.

I can select text on Neovim but can't click to go to a certain position or scroll when there's some floating window with long text.

I'm guessing Zellij is just treating the text selection as on any terminal but is not passing mouse events to the underlying application.
