I'm using Terminal version 0.4.2 with KDE 4.4.2 on Fedora 12 linux. I'm trying to use Terminal as the terminal emulator of choice for my users whatever their preferred desktop manager, as it's functional and lightweight. So I've got "Terminal" defined in a number of *.desktop files which are to be shared across XFCE, KDE, Gnome, etc. A problem is: under KDE/kwin, the maximize button on a Terminal window title-bar doesn't fully maximize the Terminal window. Maybe the Terminal app is resizing down to an integral number of lines/columns after maximise, or maybe it's the window manager. This in itself is not a problem, but then the window manager doesn't think the window is maximized, and the window doesn't revert to the previous smaller size when the maximize button is clicked again: it just re-maximizes! Any comments as to whether this is a Terminal bug, who is forcing the re-sizing after maximize, and whether there's a Terminal fix, or a work-around for the KDE window manager? Thanks.
Also occurs on XFCE for single-axis maximizes. For me this counts as a bug - at least until a dev says otherwise. Further Update: Prior to Xubuntu 12.04, maximizing one axis via wmctrl used to maximize the XFCE terminal fully (to the edge). As of Xubuntu 12.04, maximizing one axis via wmctrl only resizes to the nearest terminal row/column size. Is this intended behaviour? (It seems all the standard terminals don't want you their resize to use pixel resolution). If so, would adding an option to make resize ues pixel resolution be difficult?
Closing old bugs.
