Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:
- Set the option General->Window->Adjust window when changing font size
- Start a terminal window. (Cmd-N)
- In that window, start a 2nd tab (Cmd-T)
- Increase the font size (Cmd-+)
- Switch to the other tab
What happened:
The font size (and window size) are properly changed in the active tab when the command to change the font size is given, but the font only changes in the active tab. In the tab that is currently not visible, the font is not changed and the relative size (cols and rows) is now "wrong". When you switch to the hidden tab, and press Cmd-+ again to increase its font, the window grows again, but that ruins the "relative size" (cols, rows) in the first tab. End result, the relative size is now "wrong" in both tabs.
What should have happened:
Font change should be per window not per tab. When I change the font size in one tab, I would appreciate if the font sizes in the other tabs in the same window followed suit. Or, if the current behaviour is seen as a feature, that there was an option to change the behaviour.
Or just tell me to go RTFM ... ;-)
