SUMMARY
This article lists known issues with scrolling in chat sessions on The Microsoft Network.

MORE INFORMATION
When you select text in the Chat History pane, you can select only the text visible in the pane. That is, the pane does not scroll as you select. If you want to copy and paste text, you must do so one pane at a time.

If you scroll back in the Chat History pane and then send a message, the Chat History pane does not scroll down far enough to display the entire message that you sent. If you use the scroll arrows to scroll enough to see the whole message, the same behavior occurs the next time you send a message. To work around this behavior, scroll a few lines past the end of the last message.

When you use the keyboard to move the insertion point up in the Chat History pane and you reach the top of the pane, the insertion point disappears. This occurs because the insertion point is still scrolling up, but into a non-visible region. The text does not scroll as you move the insertion point up. Moving the insertion point back down makes it reappear.
