My quake-terminal is not saving the adjustments in size and position that I save with mabox-terminal save command.
If I resize and move, then do mabox-terminal save inside the same quake terminal that I just opened, everything is OK. Whenever I toggle the visibility of the quake-terminal, position and size are OK, as long as I do not close definitely the quake terminal (exit).
When I call the quake terminal again, the position and size is default, which is not my configuration!
How do I troubleshoot it?
I must say that I do not use the default shortcut because it’s not easy to get the grave accent in Spanish keyboards. I use W-ñ, instead. However, it toggles, and it works.
(Just a tiny extra thing:)
In the User Guide, the instructions say the shortcut is C-, and the video shows W-.
But this shortcut W-` is also used for Exposé (show all windows).
Strange, works for me on all (PC/Laptop/virtual_machines)
Anyway, I took a look at the script and simplified it a bit, could you try it?
Now there is no need to type mabox-terminal save anymore.
Geometry is saved automatically with the show/hide action.
Modified script (save it in ~/bin/mabox-terminal).
Well, first of all, thanks for helping me. That’s most important.
No, it didn’t solved the thing.
As soon as I close the quake-term windows, the position and size is lost. In this last screenshot, you can see that even I still have the correct new position and size in .quake-term file, the newly quake-like terminal opens in the default position, which is where the terminator program defines as default for default profile. Maybe this last thing got to do something with it.
This is not a deal-breaker thing, so I will further investigate and try to make changes in terminator profiles.
I just want to let you know that this is a fresh Mabox installation because I had problems with my hard disk.
So, thanks, again.
EDIT: Yes, I validated that the default layout in Terminator determines the position of the quake-like terminal. I will test if more than one layout I can handle this…
