Description Frédéric Bellaiche 2006-08-11 20:46:48 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Terminal resizes by itself when adding a new tab / switch to a tab

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start gnome-terminal
2. Increase its size 
3. Open a tab
4. Open a tab


Actual results:
The terminal increases its size. It's seems, it increases its size by the amount given at step 2 (hard to measure...). Adding another tab and switching back to one of the other tabs increases the size once more.

Expected results:
No change to the terminal's size.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Gnome terminal 2.15.4. Also happens with 2.15.3. No problem with 2.14.x
GNOME 2.15.91
glih 2.12.1
gtk+ 2.10.1
metacity 2.15.91. Everything compiled from sources.

Note: after this 'bug', gnome-terminal crashes when closed. I'll add the stacktrace.
