Htop iftop resize problem

if in a window I open htop, iftop and resize it, these utilities do not follow the resizing and clicking on the various commands (Help - Setup - Search etc.) no longer works

Hi Massimiliano,

I did a quick test on both local terminal and remote ssh session, resizing works as expected, the htop tool seemed fine.

I need more information to identify this problem, it would be great if you can provide assistance:

  1. Are you using ProxyJump or Multiplexing feature of OpenSSH?
  2. Did this issue happen in previous versions (latest version is 3.6.1 at this moment)?
  3. Could you please set Log Level to DEBUG3 and send me a copy of desensitized connection log?
  4. Could you please run stty -a before and after resize window? I'd like to compare the results.

Thank you very much,

Yang

  1. No.

  2. some versions makes everything work normally, then after an update it no longer worked, after another almost immediate update (a day or two later) it worked again and then after a further update it no longer worked. I'm sorry but unfortunately I can't tell you the version numbers of these pages

  3. Ok

Thank you very much for the detailed information. Could you please check the connection log to confirm whether has an item contains text window-change, like this:

00:50:03 debug2: channel 0: request window-change confirm 0

Please be sure that check the connection log after you changed the window size.

Thank you again,

Thank you for the information, I'm investigating this issue.

In the meanwhile, please try install and switch to use Core Helper before we find the real cause.

Kindly Regards,

Yang

thanks

i will wait for the problem to be solved, the use of core helper i can not understand it.
