Description leg22 2007-05-17 17:17:29 CEST
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070208 Mandriva/2.0.0.3-2mdv2007.1 (2007.1) Firefox/2.0.0.3
Build Identifier: 

When terminal is run under a window manager theme that specifies a window border with a 0-width border, the border width appears to thicken slightly on all edges of the text area when more than one tab is activated. This seems to occur because the activation of multiple tabs causes the actual text area of the terminal to be redrawn within a widget. It would be desirable to make the edges of this widget (with the exception of the top edge) be flush with the edge of inner edge of the window so that tabs have no visible effect on the border.

Reproducible: Always

a way to reproduce for Terminal 0.2.12 (Xfce 4.6.1) on Debian sid:

* open xfce4-terminal
* create another 2 new tabs
* close the first tab

This is reproducable with Xubuntu 17.04 with Xfce-Terminal 0.8.4 using the "Greybird" GTK Theme.
This may also be responsible for issue #13263.
The "Use custom styling to make tabs slim (restart required)" option does not seem to have effect.

The issue does not seem to occur with the "Adwaita" GTK Theme.
