Hello, Tony, and sorry for not replying! None of your messages were

I can't remember exactly..., but it seems it is. This version was
released on 15 Aug 2010, and I believe it is the time I started
noticing this.

There is no problem in changing the GTK theme, actually, for I won't
switch themes often. But that is quite boring when opening and closing
tabs, which I do very often. Though I've noticed the same behaviour in
xfce4-terminal (tabs).

I used Fvwm until the middle of the year and have never noticed
anything, but now I'm using Xfwm4.

Very good and important if we could have that fixed for Squeeze.

I'll try that ASAIC.

Thank you and best regards!
