Jeremy, Łukasz, If you're about to release an update for Bionic, could you please backport the trivial https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-terminal/commit/?h=gnome-3-28&id=1828cb6d5 as well?
At one place the strings are accidentally left untranslated on the UI, even though at some other place these same strings appear properly translated (that is, the translations are already present accoding to translators' work, just remain unused at one place). Technically it's absolutely independent from the current "New Tab" issue; however, I think we should optimize for releasing as few updates as possible, hence I'm trying to sneak it in here. Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1747171 Title: "New Tab" disappeared from the GNOME Terminal menu Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-terminal source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: Impact ------ GNOME Terminal removed the New Tab menu option before Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Tabs are a really popular feature in terminals and it's annoying to have this feature hidden. Test Case --------- Install the update. Close all terminals. Open a terminal. In the File menu should be New Tab and New Window menu items. Both should work. Regression Potential -------------------- Restoring the previous behavior is now a one-line hidden configure option. Enabling that option removes the "Open new terminals in" option mentioned in the workaround. This build option is set in Fedora (and other distros that use the Fedora tweaks) and is not believed to have any negative consequences. Other Info ---------- There are no plans at this time to try to backport this change to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or 17.10 because it would not be a simple one-line change there. (The configure flag was enabled in git commit 0820b385 .) https://debarshiray.wordpress.com/2018/05/11/gnome-terminal-separate- menu-items-for-opening-tabs-and-windows/ Workaround ---------- In Edit > Preferences (General) you can set "Open new terminals in Tab". Now, the File > New Window menu item opens a new tab instead of a new window. Original Bug Report ------------------- There is not a "New Tab" option in the file menu of GNOME Terminal anymore on Ubuntu Bionic. It looks like it disappeared after some recent update. However, the CTRL + Shift + T shortcut works as expected.
