configurable terminal tab background color and font size

[djpan0303]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. no i prefer the tab layout on standard terminal, which has a gray color on each tab title. it make me easier to identify which tab i am on now. i try to set the terminator title background color, but fail. also, i would like to set the tab font size bigger, which will make me more clear on which tab i am on by a glancing the terminator tab currently has a very small font size and its background color is not configable.

also i want the Terminator to have a new tab button on the top left of Terminator window, which is not a big problem. i can achieve this by the shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + T

Describe the solution you'd like i wish i can config my own color style and font size of terminal tab title

Describe alternatives you've considered

+1 this... I also have problem, that its hard to distinguish between active tab and inactive tabs... I googled solution and some people recommended changing .css files for terminator, but this hasn't worked for me (I changed gtk 2.0 - 4.0, but didn't help so far.

Solution I tried: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50082359/terminator-1-91-change-tab-theme-color-using-gtk3-css

EDIT: Ok, so the solution I have tried, started working after I restarted computer, so adding following into ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css (I added this to gtk-2.0 and gtk-4.0 too since I didn't know which one is actually used):

.terminator-terminal-window notebook tab { background-color: darkgrey; padding: 0; border: 0; } .terminator-terminal-window notebook tab:checked { background-image: none; background-color: #459cc4; } .terminator-terminal-window notebook tab button { padding: 0; }

Solution works by changing the color, although now tabs are very slim (still usable, but little harder to handle):

We would probably need to know how to change the height of tabs itself, I might experiment with this a little in the future.

You can do this yourself by using custom CSS rules, adding support for yet more color elements is not something I'm willing to work on. If you come up with a PR I may revisit.
