Steve, I hear you. And I apologize if this is a really dumb follow up question.
But if I run "x-terminal-emulator" what launches...lxterminal. So...?? I thought deepin's tab/ssh approach was interesting and had potential. Unfortunately, my few minutes of testing deepin found many serious usability problems. I apologize if this sounds harsh. But the reality with linux is you need the console to get things done/unbreak things. Having to dive under the hood is what users fear most. Anything that clearly makes this experience better or worse has high impact. Being able to scroll back or resize a terminal window is essential functionality. Anything that makes this in any way complicated or broken is going to be received poorly. Deepin's borderless windows break consistency with every other Lubuntu app, and make it (even more of) a nightmare to resize the window. The fact that the scrollbar on the right auto-hides completely...after which even clicking and dragging where the scrollbar should be (even when the cursor changes from the text carrot to the pointer arrow!!!) won't allow you to click and scroll back to see past commands...The only non-obvious way to get the scroll bar to appear again (temporarily) is to press enter into the command prompt and then the scroll bar appears for a few seconds. The only way to move the window is to click and drag the top where the window title bar normally be...but the top is the same solid black as everything else so there's no clear delineation of where the top title bar should be. I think deepin has some nice ideas with the "+" to easily add a new tab and ssh sessions, etc. But a terminal who's ability to scroll back is broken is useless. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766478 Title: Deepin terminal is installed in base install unintentionally To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/1766478/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
