  <title>Windows and tabs</title>

<note style="tip">
  <p>This setting only applies when the <link xref="pref-menubar">menubar is
  enabled</link>, or when <app>Terminal</app> is started from the command line and
  neither the <cmd>--tab</cmd> nor the <cmd>--window</cmd> options are passed.</p>
</note>

  <p>You can choose whether to open a new tab or a new <app>Terminal</app>
  window when you use <gui style="menuitem">New Terminal</gui>.</p>

  <steps>
    <title>If the menubar is enabled,</title>
    <item>
      <p>Select
      <guiseq><gui style="menu">Edit</gui><gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>
      <gui style="tab">General</gui></guiseq>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Set <gui>Open new terminals in:</gui> to <gui>Tab</gui> or
      <gui>Window</gui>.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <steps>
    <title>If the menubar is not enabled,</title>
    <item>
      <p>Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select
      <gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the sidebar, select <gui>General</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Set <gui>Open new terminals in:</gui> to <gui>Tab</gui> or
      <gui>Window</gui>.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>Once you have set the preference, you can use <key>Ctrl</key> to invert
  the preference. For example, if you have your preferences set to open a new
  terminal in a new tab, then pressing <gui style="menuitem">New Terminal</gui>
  will open a new tab. On the other hand, if you hold down <key>Ctrl</key> and
  then press <gui style="menuitem">New Terminal</gui>, then a new window will
  be opened instead.</p>
