Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 17.10 (artful) reached end-of-life on July 19, 2018.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:

We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested
in discussing it any more.
I see, thanks. Yes it sounds like legacy X apps are the ones affected.
Native Wayland apps (Gnome 3.x) are not affected.

The above mentioned darker window edges in 17.10 do not appear in all
windows. They appear in Firefox, Thunderbird and e.g. the Gnome Terminal
(maybe this has to do with gnome-terminal being at 2.24). The window
decorations in for example the file-manager are not affected.

In the attached screenshot one can see that there is a difference in the
color of the outer pixels of the screen edge. In 17.10 there is a darker
grey. Both windows were in the front, when the screenshots were taken.

See attached.
It appears there is no difference in the window decoration edges
(although the different wallpaper colour behind makes them look
different).
There is definitely a change in the X button design that is now
And the Screenshot for 16.04.

Thanks for your quick reply. No, its on the Laptop screen with the
correct driver for each laptop in place. Maybe I'm a little too
sensitive for these cosmetic issues, the difference strikes me
immediately. Maybe its just because the buttons are scaled a little
bigger in 17.10. I see grey pixels

I'm looking at both 16.04 and 17.10 on identical monitors and can't see
the problem you're talking about.
Can you take screenshots of the issue? Just press PrtScn and then look
in your Pictures...
