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

+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.
