ctrl-alt-t opens a new window instead of a new tab while the shell is the active window. I see in the terminal shortcut settings --which are enabled-- (in terminal window: edit > preferences > shortcuts) that ctrl-alt-t is meant to open a new tab.



Prior to this issue I followed the instructions here to try to customize the shortcut, and I then followed the "rollback" directions in that post to undo it since it wasn't working. Maybe that's what messed things up for me?



Steps to create this issue:

1. open a gnome-shell terminal window

2. mouse click on the terminal to ensure it is active

3. ctrl-alt-t



Expected result: new terminal tab opens in existing window.

Observed result: new and separate terminal window opens.



gnome-shell --version is "GNOME Shell 3.28.3"



Thanks so much for any help!
