Switching profile does not change terminal size #2187

gtirloni commented 10 months ago

Two profiles with different terminal sizes were defined.

Switching from one to the other does not affect the terminal size.

If there are font differences, they are reflected as expected, but the terminal size continues the same.

Right click in the terminal window opens a popup with a selection of profiles. Selecting a profile and Shift-Control-N will open a new window with the selected profile. If the profile specifies a different terminal size, the new window has the correct size. The original window has the new profile but without the new terminal size. This is counter-intuitive. If resizing the original window is difficult or conceptually "wrong", then I suggest the popup text be modified to "open new window with new profile" and have the popup trigger a shift-control-N with the new profile BUT WITHOUT changing the original window's profile.
