Lubuntu - terminal disappears but is still running
up vote

I've added a quick launch section to my panel. I've added some programs and all are working fine so far except the terminal.
I have added the terminal to the quick launch. When I click on it, the terminal opens and I can run commands, etc.
But when I click outside the terminal window, for example on another app that is running, the terminal disappears and is nowhere to be found. It's still running but I can't get back to it.
I even tried Alt+Tab with no luck.
I know it's running because I have a script that I executed and then clicked outside the terminal window. I can tell by some file behavior that the script is still cranking away.
command-line 18.04 lubuntu

There are 2 terminals available and I've tried both. I should also mention that if I open either terminal using the menus they work just fine. this is only happening when I launch it from quick launch.
