Move tab to new window, launch position, center on launch? #18670

Open

Description

It seems that "move tab to new window" honors the startup "Launch position" setting and does not honor the startup "Center on launch" setting. Is that the intended behavior?

    That was in WindowsTerminal 1.23.2502.04003 (preview) (1.23.353.0).

    In WindowsTerminal 1.22.2502.04002 (1.22.352.0), "center on launch" is honored.

    Thanks for filing this! This used to be a checkbox in #9800, but I'll use this to be the real tracking issue

    center on launch overrides persisted location

    tl;dr the center-on-launch handling always overrides any position setting (including one that's from the persisted layout).

    I'd be confident that the same center-on-launch handling similarly overrides tearout positioning.
