This was broken intentionally in order to fix another bug which is not fixable and not even workaroundable otherwise. See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754596. Although, as discussed there, we are aware of problems that we introduced and we have a few ideas how to improve (that is, partially revert) the behavior.
In order to help move forward, could you please share your app (or better, a tiny proof of concept, just the necessary steps extracted that demo the problematic behavior)? ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #754596 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754596 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1678271 Title: Background color erase (bce) is broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1678271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
