Title is not updated in Session Tab [9]

This has been an issue since the beginning of the beta of Xshell 5.

I have a session saved with name CORE-SW inside Xshell. Everytime I connect to CORE-SW, the title of the tab changed to CORE-SW which is great and I want that. However when I exist the connection back to the local shell, the title is still showing CORE-SW for the tab. It should switch back displaying "Local Shell" in My opinion. The same for the main window title as well, unless I open another tab.

This is not critical but annoying...Running the latest beta now.

Program Ver. : Xshell 5

This is actually an intended feature. There were other users who has been using different session names and when the connections are broken abruptly, all tabs change to local shell. So, some users were saying that we should keep the session name even after it disconnects.

I will definitely bring this subject during our next developers meeting and try to find a solution.

Okey, maybe there could be a configuration option to enable or disable it?

We are discussing about switching back to the original. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I think this is now fixed in lastest beta.

Just realize that this "issue" is back in v5 build 0469... Maybe my configuration is wrong?

Have you done this already?

1. Set the terminal type to xterm
2. Xshell takes what is after the colon (:) characters from the title and uses it as the path of the current working directory. Try adding the following lines in the .bashrc file to add path at the end of the title.

PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/#$HOME/~}"; echo -ne "\007"'

xterm is used in xshell but you lost me on the 2nd item you listed...

I am sorry about the confusion. This feature has been added under the Advanced option in the Tools > Options menu.

If you don't like to see the session name after it disconnects, clear the following option:

Show disconnected session name on the session tab
