Thanks for reporting! I cannot reproduce the crash. Even though creating an account, I cannot view the original bugreport. So I need some more information: 1. Can you please post the command, used for the UCA "Open Terminal Here" For me it is: "exo-open --working-directory %f --launch TerminalEmulator" which did not lead to any crahes so far Best post the full "Open Terminal Here" entry of $HOME/.config/Thunar/uca.xml 2. Is the crash reproducable on all folders ? No matter which permission ? "xfce_spawn_on_screen_with_child_watch" is inside thunar .... it seems to make use of the arguments given by the UCA command.
Downstream reporter mentions the folowing - 1. Mine is "exo-open --working-directory %f --launch TerminalEmulator" witch is exactly the same as yours 2. It crash on any files or folders no matter which permission It also crash if i replace it with "gnome-terminal --working-directory %f" and keep crashing even if i replace all with "gnome-terminal" or "xterm" or other terminals Interesting i created many different custom actions for test with random applications and none of them crashed... so i tried unchecking "startup notification" checkbox and now it works perfectly. For what it's worth, I could not reproduce this bug on my system.
Hmm .. intresting. As far as I can tell, this option should show you a mouse idle pointer until the UCA application is launched. Possibly the bug could be icon-theme specific as well. .. so you dont have a backtrace, and you cannot reproduce it any more ? Than there is little hope that we can fix it. In that case I would suggest to close the bug ( feel free to reopen, if it should occur again ! )

The original reporter is not seeing this anymore. > Than there is little hope that we can fix it.
