Dont autoscroll in app container log

Feature Requests

When I view logs of my app container the viewport gets autoscrolled down upon every new line appearing.

This needs to be disabled because it makes log inspecting almost impossible. I basically cant view old logs because the view keeps returning down.

For example Frigate app outputs default password upon creating in the log which is needed to login in its web UI. It was kinda hard to find when every few seconds the viewport autoscrolled down.

I think autoscroll should be disabled in all logs and views with live output.

Thanks.

This is a serious concern. No option for pausing. Some apps like Ollama are just spitting nonsense all the time and it’s impossible to get anything useful from the logs.

It is very frustrating indeed when you need to troubleshoot something or when an app shows a password in the logs like transmission does. I took me a while and fast reflexes. Would love to see a pause implemented.
