Hi,

When pressing Ctrl-Alt-T when Konsole is already open, I would like for the existing window to be unminimized and for a new tab to be created, rather than a new window.

How to do this ?

Thanks

    in Shortcuts, remove Ctrl-Alt-T from “Launch” and put it on “Open in New Tab”

    That works, thank you !

    you can’t close tabs in Konsole with middle click

    Actually, that works. Konsole v24.12.1 on KDE neon 6.2

    Although I always close all terminal sessions on all devices with Ctrl+D because it’s universal.

      hmm, I’m on 24.12.0 on Fedora so I guess I’ll see if it works when it upgrades next.

        Hmm, I would find it weird that this feature would have been added just now on that last patch version.

        However, I noticed something : on another computer, running flatpaked Konsole on Pop OS, middle click doesn’t work indeed. So, maybe this feature only works when using KDE ?

        UPDATE : turns out, the feature just wasn’t enabled. Go to Configure Konsole -> Tab Bar / Splitters -> Behavior -> Close tab on middle-click.

        Also, here’s something I like on Konsole that other terminal emulators don’t have : making the tab bar always visible, because I don’t like when the terminal resizes due to going between 1 tab & 2+ tabs.

          That’s awesome, it’s fixed. I have no idea why that isn’t the default, because it does nothing otherwise (though if you dbl-middle click, it brings up tab configuration).
