Inconvenient to duplicate SSH session
Hey team,
I mainly use RDM for SSH and it is giving me hard time when I want to duplicate a session! there is no shortcut to duplicate a session and clicking on a saved connection doesn't create a new session!
I must go to an open tab, right click and choose 'Duplicate Connection".
Would it be possible to:
- Add a shortcut to duplicate a session? like Ctrl+T or Ctrl+D?
- Allow new connection to open on a new tab when I click on a saved SSH session in navigation bar.
- all of the above :)
I hope developers won't find it hard to implement this!
Best,
Am

Hello,
For your bullet point listed bellow, could you explain in more details what you mean? I am not certain I understand exactly what it is you want.
- Allow new connection to open on a new tab when I click on a saved SSH session in navigation bar.

Hello Michael and thank you for your response.
Currently, when an SSH session is opened (I open it by going to local data source to a respective folder where I saved the session and I click on it to get it opened), if I want to duplicate the session I have to right-click on the opened tab and choose "Duplicate Connection". But, if I click on the entry itself again from navigation pane (local data source, folder then choose connection saved) it doesn't duplicate the session. However, it sends me to the existing session that is opened.
In other terminal emulators, I used to click on the session again to get a duplicate connection of it. This is much more convenient than doing right-click then choosing a duplicate option (especially that there is no keyboard shortcut for duplicating a session, unfortunately).
I hope this explains it a bit.
Hello,
Could you try to activate the option "Allow multiple connections (Default)" in File -> Options -> Application (in the Connection sub section).
By doing this, you should be able to double click your session in the treeview to launch another session while one is already opened.
P.S : This option can also be turned on or off for specific sessions in their properties under the "Advanced" tab.

Excellent Michael. This is exactly what I was looking for :)
Thanks a lot.
