tilix Padding

Please add ability to set text padding from window border:

Just piping in to say this would be really useful when splitting windows, Without any padding it's quite difficult to copy text from a right hand split, I usually end up selecting the splitter bar instead.

This came up right away when doing a ddg search. IDK if this is something that can be adjusted in VTE or if it needs to be done in Tilix (I will be looking at VTE), but if Tilix can add this as an adjustable option for both top-bottom and left-right that would be great!

Additionally, the ability to "center" in the window any padding if it's just a single number all-around would be nice. I think it's Konsole that allows you to do this option and it's nice. EDIT: QTerminal does it, it also supports splits I found out.

Ended here after searching for "Adding padding to Tilix" It's a basic 'must have' indeed. Any idea if we could try our chance via some config file?

Open ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css in a text editor. Create the file if it doesn't exist.
Add this to the file, and enjoy:

.tilix-background vte-terminal {
  padding: 10px;
}

But I really wish that Padding could be set in the Tilix profiles. Would be a lot more convenient, since the changes I just mentioned would be wiped out anytime you change your GTK CSS theme/overrides.
