Terminator closes when right clicked, unfocused (clicked outside of window) and so on
Some days ago I had the same problem. Even cleaning up terminator folder and resinstalling it, just doens't work...
Today, I noticed it was a configured behavement, written on terminator config file. So, you shold open it and clean 'focus' config line to let it default.
- Open terminator config file:
~/.config/terminator/config - Check [global_config] lines, clean up any focus config line.
- Open Terminator; Click with right mouse button (even terminator window closes); Click in Preferences, On the new windows opened, in Global tab, check if Mouse Focus option is setted to Click to focus; Close preferences window.
- Open Terminator again and check if it's working fine!
A brief answer using GUI:
Right click to open "Preferences", and uncheck "Hide on lose focus" can solve this problem.
I noticed this after following the approach that @Mauricio provided.
