Description Manuel Mommertz 2018-07-10 06:45:44 UTC

I just lost my work again by accident. So it's time to write a bug.
Often I copy text around by selecting it in one tab, change to another tab and insert it by middle click. Every so often I find myself looking at the content of another tab and wondering what happened until I realize that I don't moved the mouse enough and closed my working tab.

Please consider making this feature optional! Thanks

I sent the path to KDE phabricator.

This bug is biting me right now.. As the command line is quite close to the tab bar, and I paste using middle click rather often, it's enough to be slightly off and the terminal is lost.

 Can we have at least a confirmation popup when closing tabs? The configuration option to turn this off would really be appreciated, even if we have to put it manually into yakuakerc. I guess the patch from 2018 doesn't apply anymore? :-(
