Description rsupremo 2014-12-08 21:01:41 UTC

When Konsole is run with --new-tab option  the tab is created but the Konsole window does not come to top which reduces usability of this option.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open konsole
2. Run konsole --new-tab by means of other window
2. konsole stays in background

Running `konsole --new-tab` basically opens a new window, not tab. Not an expected behaviour definitely, confirmed.

Confirmed using Kubuntu 16.04 (LTS).

Note: I am no maintainer but from the bugsquad.

Is this still an issue for you guys or was it resolved?
Unfortunately I cannot test it because it spawns a new window and not just a new tab.

Still an issue, I experience it every day although I have mostly gotten used to it by now.

Still an issue. Running "konsole --new-tab" with a Konsole window open in the background will open a new tab in that instance but will not raise the window or make it active. Obviously, there is no problem when the window is already active.
