I have noticed a nuance in how the terminal block works. This may be an intentional feature, but it was surprising to me.

If you re-run a terminal, the environment variables are not refreshed.

  • Create env var block
  • set the var FOO to the value BAR
  • create a terminal block with the command echo $FOO
  • execute the terminal, see “BAR” displayed - do not exit terminal
  • change the env var value to something else
  • shift-click the red square/orange arrows to re-run terminal commands
  • see that “BAR” is displayed because FOO has it’s old value
  • fully stopping the terminal and re-executing with the green arrow refreshes the vars as expected

Thanks!

noted! thanks for letting us know

It’s an artifact of how they work - re-running doesn’t create a new pty, but re-uses the existing. Really it should do the former!
