Ok, he made the change for gnome-terminal 3.30.1 which has a reasonable chance of being in Ubuntu 18.10 available in October. (Basically, you'll need to change a gsettings value from the command line or by using dconf-editor.) I'm not very interested in trying to backport this change to Ubuntu

Jani, the GNOME Terminal developer chose to implement this as a build- time option. If it is really a big deal to you, you could try filing a bug to ask that he make it a more traditional option in Preferences (using gsettings). It's hard to say whether he would be interested in implementing that,

Jeremy: If this is indeed the popular choice then I fully respect that. I just wanted to voice my disgruntlement, since I feel the way this was set by upstream is much simpler. Sorry for being late with it, didn't realize this was getting overridden before the change already came into effect. --

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1747171] Re: "New Tab" disappeared from the GNOME Terminal menu

Jani, could you use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+T to open a new tab (or Ctrl+Shift+N to open a new window) ? New Tab is the first item in the File list so I'm not sure what more we can do here. From my understanding, it's a lot more popular to offer both New Tab and New Window than to only

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1747171] Re: "New Tab" disappeared from the GNOME Terminal menu

Urgh, I'd argue that changing this back *is* a regression. The merged menu item has been the default since (at least) 16.04, and now the cognitive load of opening a new tab has suddenly increased: instead of "new terminal" I now again have to pick the one I want (which is always tabs for me) from

Well, since it's in "proposed", which I guess means waiting for feedback, and is not an urgent update at all, my feedback was maybe you should hold it off and release along with that other fix to save an update for users :-) Anyway, filed that as bug 1771290, rest is up to you. Thanks a lot! :-)

I verified that the New Tab menu option is present after installing gnome-terminal 3.28.1-1ubuntu1.1 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I also installed language-pack-gnome-fr, switched my language to French (France) in Settings > Region and Language. I logged out and logged back in. I opened the Terminal and

The new menu items are there in mainstream gnome-terminal's source (behind a configure flag; so they aren't added by Ubuntu). Hence they are translated (or not) according to the mainstream GNOME translators' work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop

Hi, I'm not sure what makes you believe there's a "New Tab" in mainstream GNOME Terminal, it's not the case. "New Window" and "New Tab" were merged quite some time ago into a single "New Terminal". The two actions are still available as separate shortcuts. The menu entry behaves according to Edit
