Can titlebar be hidden by default

Asked by Peng Deng

Is there any way to use the config file (~/.terminatorrc) to let the titlebar hide by default?

Do you mean the window titlebar, or the per-terminal bar which shows the title of the terminal?

-b will disable the window titlebar, and adding "titlebars = False" to .terminatorrc will disable the terminal titles

Thanks for the reply. I mean the titlebar for each terminal.

I put the "titlebars=false" into ~/.terminatorrc but nothing changes. Then I noticed the (debug) output of Terminator showing the following info:

TConfig: Looking for: 'titlebars'
 VSGConf: preparing: /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/titlebars
 TConfig: got: 'True' from a 'Default'

Therefore I add a new boolean key with the name "titlebars" using gconf-editor and this solves the problem.

I know it shouldn't work out like this, but why is my configuration file ignored?

I suspect we only accept "False" and you have "false" (ie the capital F needs to be there). This should probably be filed as a bug! Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
