Hi all,

I'm having a problem with gnome-terminal and its "profiles" feature.

I added a profile in gnome-terminal (Edit -> Profiles...) called "work", for which I checked the "use custom default terminal size" (in the preferences) and wrote in a different size. When opening a new terminal in any of the two profiles ("Default" or "work"), everything works well. The problem is that when I switch between profiles (Terminal -> Profiles), the size is not respected. That is, if I am in "Default", whose size is 24x80, and switch to "work", the size remains 24x80, instead of what I set in the preferences for the "work" profile. The same thing happens the other way around.

In case it helps, I noticed that this doesn't happen with fonts, i.e., switching between profiles correctly changes to each profile's font.

I've googled for about 3 hours without luck. Any ideas? Is this just a bug? BTW, I am using Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. Thanks!
