Current tab should differ in collor than all non-active tabs.

[voyager123bg]

Dear developers,

First I want to thank you for creating this magnificent piece of software guake.

I'd wish only for one more thing - there was a better visualisation which is your current tab. I'd like to be able to have active tab in a different color, like when you mouse over the tab it changes color; I'd like active tab to be more distinguishable than the non-active tabs...

You can see in the screenshot is hard to be recognized at a glance.

Thanks,
Nikolay

I write developers with no luck. I suspect we have to touch something in /usr/share/guake/guake.glade
hbox-tabs widget contain the tabs, but all of them.

Thank you very much Andew! I add a comment about this on https://github.com/Guake/guake/issues/170 :
Do you know how to just set to bold instead of changing color background? I'm not familiar with gtk related source code.

On Guake v0.4.4 the patch just add on /usr/bin/guake (just before bnt.show() on add_tab subroutine, line 1228):
bnt.modify_bg(gtk.STATE_ACTIVE, gtk.gdk.Color("#CEE0A6"))

Stibbons closed issued 170 and added 248: https://github.com/Guake/guake/issues/248 which is much more complete, but he doesn't know how to reflect the changes on Ubuntu package (not even PPA).

[Robert Matusewicz (matekm)]

As mentioned above, the fix was released in 2014. Guake in Ubuntu 19.10 clearly shows which tab is active.

[Robert Matusewicz (matekm)]

This feature request was implemented in upstream in 2014. Guake in Ubuntu 19.10 is nicely showing which tab is currently active.
