Setting title doesn't work in terminals launched via 'msg create-window' when instance was created with --title
#6836

Maybe your snippet is not being red in this case? I'd assume that if you manually request to set title with one of those escapes it'll work just fine. |
if I run so no, it doesn't work just fine in that case either |
Are you sure that you're not disabling title setting somewhere in the config or launch with the |
Ah, I see, somewhere I did launch another alacritty with --title, and now all my terminals are children of that process, and those are the ones where setting the title isn't working. It seems like either children of alacritty process started with |
Hm, yeah, you're correct. I think we shouldn't persist the Not sure about the binding though, what do you think @chrisduerr ? The issue is that running |

Persisted or reset to dynamic one? I think we should reset to dynamic, because |
Honestly I don't really care either way. |
making children handle their own titles dynamically would be appreciated here (until then children are unusable because they can't be differentiated in window switcher 😅 |
This fixes an issue where Windows spawned after the initial one through IPC or bindings would not update their title due to the initial window having its title set through the CLI. Title changes are still inhibited for additional windows when they are spawned through `alacritty msg create-window` with the `--title` CLI option added. Closes alacritty#6836.

Hello,
When I launch a terminal with "alacritty" that terminal's title is updated with the running command / pwd as I do stuff in it. When I launch` a terminal with "alacritty msg create-window" the title isn't being updated, it just stays as "Alacritty"
the zsh snippet responsible for updating the terminals title is:
System
OS: Fedora Linux 39 (Rawhide Prerelease)
Version: alacritty 0.10.1
Linux/BSD: X11 i3wm
