What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Open an iTerm window.
- Create two iTerm tabs in the window (or use two windows).
- Set the font in the two tabs/windows to different sizes.
- Open the inspector and navigate to the Text panel.
- Keeping the inspector open, switch between tabs.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to see the values of the currently active tab (regardless of window) to be reflected in the inspector.
What you see instead are the values from the tab that was active when the panel opened.

You can use Command-I to open the Inspector/refresh it to the current tab. In that case however I believe the current Inspector pane should be preserved. So, for example, if you were viewing font settings in the Text tab for Window 1 and then switched to Window 2 and hit Command-I the Inspector should simply refresh, not open on the General tab. Right now if you refresh or reopen the Inspector it always opens on the General tab. I think a better approach would be to reopen on the last tab you were using, be it Text, Window, Colors, Terminal, or whatever.
