Bug Description

In the desktop/web app, when running the new terminal command, a new terminal tab is created but the terminal pane doesn't automatically open. The user only sees the new terminal tab after manually opening the terminal pane.

Expected Behavior

Running the new terminal command in the desktop/web app should:

  1. Create a new terminal tab
  2. Automatically open/focus the terminal pane so the user can see the new tab

Current Behavior

  • New terminal tab is created in the background
  • Terminal pane remains closed/hidden
  • User must manually open the terminal pane to see the new tab

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the desktop or web app
  2. Have the terminal pane closed
  3. Run the new terminal command
  4. Observe that the terminal pane doesn't open
  5. Manually open the terminal pane
  6. See the new terminal tab that was created
