Tilix: Padding around terminal

Created on 29 Jul 2017  路  1Comment  路  Source: gnunn1/tilix

Is there a way to add padding around the text in the terminal? I basically want there to be a gap of a few pixels between the edges of the text and the actual edge of the window. Most terminal emulators support this via some kind of configuration option but I haven't found anything for tilix yet :cry:

There is no configuration option for this and I have no plans to add one. However, you can do it by adding some CSS to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css as follows:

vte-terminal {
    padding: 10px;
}

Depending on what version of GTK you are using, the selector may need to be adjusted. This works for me on GTK 3.22. Also note this will effect all VTE based terminals including gnome-terminal.
