Description
Before opening an issue, please try starting terminator with an empty config
file, by issuing terminator -u -g /dev/null and see if it starts normally.
If it does, and you still want to open the bug, then please attach the
config file, usually found at $HOME/.config/terminator/config to the issue
Fill out as many of these fields as you can
Describe the bug
I have two different profiles, a light (white background) and a dark (black background) one. The dark is the default. When I start a new terminator window, the background is black as expected. But when I right click into the terminal, the background changes to white.
If the window has many terminals, all of them will switch to the white background.
On right click > profiles, I see that default (black) is still active, but apparently the settings from the light background are applied.
To change back to dark, I have to select the light profile and then do a right click into the terminal. This will make it switch back to dark. I have to do this in each terminal individually although the initial swtich to light happened for all of them at once.
I have no idea what's going on here but it's pretty annoying in daily use because the strange behavior "reliably" happens in each window after a while.
To Reproduce
see above
Expected behavior
- profiles don't switch randomly without me doing it
- correct settings of a profile are applied
- right click doesn't mess with profiles

Additional context
It might have started when I started to use layouts but I'm not sure about that. Might have been there from the beginning as well (I have used terminator for a couple of years before I started to use profiles and not long after that I also started to use layouts).
