Hi, Wondering if there's any plans to update the broken scrolling in 2.2.12 running on Big Sur? Very annoying, just wanting to know if there's update plans, thanks!
I have uploaded beta version for testing operation on BigSur: https://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/macosx/Bluefish-2.2.13beta1.dmg
It is development version, build using gtk+3.24.28, so there are many features that are still not working and overall performance is slower due extra logging switched on. Known issues:
Uses default Adwaita theme (old MacOS theme does not work on gtk+3.24).
Python is not included - Zencoding and other functionality that depends on python will not work.
Can somebody test it on BigSur to make sure scrolling and other issues are fixed or at least improved somewhat?

The main problem is that I do not have computer with latest macOS versions, so I am unable to do proper testing.
The general issue is that gtk3+ scrolling is broken. Even on my 10.14 system, when I try to build bluefish with latest gtk3+, the scrolling works, however, CPU consumption is very high (70-100%), and battery draw is awful. Apple removed old API that had good scrolling performance, and current gtk3+ code path has no scrolling optimization, it just redraws whole scroll area. There is very few people that are maintaining gtk3+ macOS backend, so I do not expect situation to improve any time soon.
I am planning to update one of my computers to latest macOS in next few months, so probably then I will be able to sort out these issues.

I have found that scrolling works in full screen mode when using Bluefish 2.2.12 on Big Sur.
Hello,
It's been so long since I posted this I can't really answer. However,
running 2.2.13beta rev8895M on MacOS 12.6.2 seems fine.

What is the status of this? Is the issue still there?

Thank you @Andrius and @Nathan, for the info!
