Colorful Tab and one highlighted color
-
I am interested in finding out if Colorful Tab can be setup to just highlight the current opened tab with a different color than the other tabs that displayed across the top of the screen. In other words, assume I have 7 tabs opened, I would like all of the tabs that are not the currently opened tab to be a gray color and the opened tab to be a blue color. That way I can easily distinguish which of the 7 tabs is the currently open tab.
I am not interested in each tab being a different color.
Does Colorful tabs have that option? -
As I already wrote in another post, in my opinion, a thin (maybe 1 pixel) contrasting-color line delimiting the active tab (to some extent similar to ActiveWindow border, in XP desktop classic style, settable in AdvancedAppearance) would fit better. If you would remember, default color of ActiveWindow was red, but user could change it (could change also the pixel width of that line) ; maybe you can make color settable.
In my opinion, this would make much more "visible" the active tab than the actual way : now the active tab has a white edge. Even if you would set it by default to be red (so with no options to the user) would improve usability : a strong, contrasting difference would make it easier to spot.This would make much more "visible" the active tab -- would make it easier to spot.
Even if the line on the edge would be "simply red" (so, without color choices available for the user) : I think usability would be improved.I am grateful for the work you do,
