Termianl Windows Prefs

[astromac]

How can I change the PF terminal module's preferences (e.g. things like background translucency, color, font, etc.)? I'm not seeing it so far.

Thanks!

Changing the Terminal module settings from within a panel doesn't seem to work currently. However, there is a simple workaround:

Update: there's a slightly easier way to do this...

Choose File > New Terminal to open a new terminal window. The "Settings" button in the toolbar will allow you to change Terminal's default settings (be sure to click "Update Default" when finished), and all new tabs opened within the Terminal pane will inherit the new settings.

This does not seem to work for me. My default Terminal.app settings are note reflected in the drop down terminal drawer in Path Finder. I am using 10.5.6 and Path Finder 5.0.9

kind regards

Terminal.app settings unfortunately won't be carried over to Path Finder - PF has embedded within it an open source app called iTerm that uses its own settings. If you change iTerm's default settings within one of Path Finder's free-floating terminal windows, then begin a new terminal session by opening a new terminal tab or relaunching Path Finder, all terminal panes and drawers should inherit those settings. Does this work for you?

Hi, sorry for the late reply, I just saw that I was not subscribed to this thread. This solution works for me. However, I had to set the Default Terminal App to Path Finder, as I had set this to Terminal.app previously. I also had to restart Path Finder, but now I have colors I can read in my terminal drawer. Thanks for the help!
