Both PS1 and PROMPT_COMMAND might be relevant, they might change e.g. the window title (like PROMPT_COMMAND probably does), and changing the window title has a slim chance of triggering some bugs. You could experiment with setting PS1 to something very simple and also unsetting PROMPT_COMMAND at the same time. Different bash versions might behave differently. 4.3 was an "odd" (read: buggy) one in the sense that it didn't handle window resizes immediately, only when a key was pressed later. With current 4.4 the prompt is redrawn immediately upon a resize, but apparently PROMPT_COMMAND as well as $() substitutions in PS1 are not run again. Maybe in 4.2 it used to be different and maybe PROMPT_COMMAND was re- executed or something like this, I don't know. You could also experiment with running a "cat" or "sleep 10000" or "vim" or something like these (so that bash doesn't have a word during the resize), or using zsh (let us know if that's what you're already using). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1706008 Title: gnome-terminal window becomes one line shorter after every fullscreen/windowed cycle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1706008/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
