This is difficult to explain, so please bear with me.
When I open a new tab in Terminal, the Terminal window moves. This only happens when the window is at the bottom of the screen. The window moves up vertically just enough so that it is not below/beside the dock anymore. It does not move horizontally. It also remains the same size.
No other apps behave this way, only Terminal. I am using version 2.8.
Terminal did not behave this way in macOS 10.12 Sierra. It started behaving this way when I updated to 10.13.1 High Sierra.
Step by step, this is what happens:
- Open Terminal.
- Move Terminal window to bottom left or right corner of screen (flush with the edges).
- Open new tab in Terminal.
- Terminal window moves up so that it is higher than the dock.
How do I prevent #4 from happening? How do I prevent the Terminal window from moving by itself when I open a new tab?
Show Tab Bar
under the View Menu, then the Tab Bar is not created when you create the 2nd tab, so the window does not shift.Show Tab Bar
, then making a new window (there should now be a tab bar with a single Tab). Then making a new Tab? When I do this, the window does not shrink.
