Prevent scrolling of non full screen window

[DavidOfIthaca]

I have NoMachine (7.10.1) client connecting to Linux server. When not in full screen mode, with scroll bars present, if the mouse is near the edge of the window then there will be automatic scrolling. I have set “Automatic viewport scrolling sensitive area size” in .nx/config/player.cfg to “0” but this does not help. What to do?

Can you tell us the Linux distribution and version? What desktop enviroment is it?

Remote computer: Scientific Linux 7.9 (Nitrogen)
Local Client: macOS Monterey 12.5

We haven’t been able to reproduce this issue using the same set-up. Make sure that before changing any parameter in the player.cfg on the computer you are connecting from, you exit the player (click on the !M icon in the system tray and select Exit the player). Once all nxplayer processes are closed, then edit the cfg file and try again..

Problem turned out that I was editing the player.cfg file on the server side instead of the client side. Now everything works as advertised. Thanks for your help!
