Entering the Settings menu in fullscreen can become stuck due to disabled keybinds
Windows Terminal version
1.14.2281.0
Windows build number
10.0.19044.1889
Other Software
No response
Steps to reproduce
Note: Keybinds listed are my own, I believe they're the defaults but I can't remember for sure.
- Open Terminal
- Enter fullscreen mode (Alt+Enter)
- Open the Settings menu (Ctrl+,)
- Attempt to leave the Settings menu via:
- Ctrl+W (Close Tab keybind)
- The 'Save' button
- The 'Discard changes' button
- Alt+Enter
- Esc
- Note that none of the above work and you are seemingly stuck
Expected Behavior
There should be some obvious way of exiting the Settings menu, whether it's a GUI button, the user's chosen Close Tab key, or otherwise.
Actual Behavior
There is no readily apparent way to leave the fullscreen Settings menu.
Here is a short video of me trying to do so: https://youtu.be/XFII1thF1Xc
Eventually I tried Ctrl+Tab and found out that this keybind works to change tabs while stuck this way. I could then get out of fullscreen mode while in a regular terminal tab, and then close the Settings tab.
The Close Pane keybind Ctrl+Shift+W also seems to work, but it's not obvious that the Settings menu is a Pane and not a Tab.
