Description Simone Gaiarin 2018-11-20 18:47:45 UTC
SUMMARY
There are some descriptions of some shortcuts that are unclear and some repeat as well. They are:
- In this Session (repeated twice)
- For this session

What do they mean?

I think the description should be made more explicit.

I've checked and I didn't find the shortcuts your describe.
You're talking about the "Action" column on the "Configure Shortcuts" window, right ? If not, could you describe where to find them more precisely ? 

Also, do you use a locale other than English ?
Comment 2 Simone Gaiarin 2018-12-13 21:18:17 UTC
Yes the "Action" column. I just tried again now to take a screenshot, and they are not there anymore. 

Though these actions are present in the source code (at least I am not becoming crazy :-) )
https://github.com/panzi/Yakuake/blob/master/app/tabbar.cpp

...figured out while writing this:

if you open a second terminal in the same tab (Right click on the tab name > Split Left/Right) then the context menu of the tab (Right click on the tab name) has new items. In particular:
"Monitor for activity > In this session"
"Monitor for silence > In this session"
"Disable keyboard input > For this session"

At this point, these new actions are also available in the "Configure shortcuts" dialog, but these actions are meaningless there because are not connected to the "parent item" as it happens in the menu.
