Does not execute selected python code in terminal, it wait for user to press Enter key

[vinaychuri]

When I select some lines of python code and use SHIFT+ENTER to execute the code in Terminal , the code is dispayed in the Terminal but it does not execute until I press ENTER key in the Terminal window.
I would expect the selected code to be executed in the Terminal after "code selection+SHIFT+ENTER"

I selected upto the last print(5) , added newlines and selected upto the newlines but still the same behaviour
I selected just the function definition upto print(3) , AND it works as intended !!!
I selected just the imports , AND it works as intended !!!
I selected just the imports + function definition , AND it works as intended !!!

Is this by design to ensure explicit user intervention before execution or am I missing some settings?

Hey @vinaychuri! Are you using a custom keybinding to send your selected code to the Terminal?

Our suggested workflow to run code is typically Cmd/Ctrl + Enter to send and execute the code in a Console. Any chance you are using a Terminal because you want to use a different version of Python than currently active in the Console? If so, you may be interested in using multiple Consoles with different Python environments:

• Managing Interpreters
• Create a new interpreter session
