In my splitwindow2 patches I underline the text label in active tab. So
that the user can tell which of the 2 notebooks is active currently
(the
tabs alone don't show that).

Would that be a worthy fix to your problem?
Yes. The ability to have the current tab underlined, italic or bold
seems like a good thing to have, irrespective of my problems with 2.24 +
Win~1. It probably should be done programmatically?
I sort of like the idea. And would agree that it might be not just
useful on Windows.
Thomas, can this be done in code so it could be enabled/disabled by a
setting?

Sure, but why would you disable it?

Because it's damn ugly :)  (and serves absolutely no purpose -- for me)


+1, and it's also something that should be controlled by user/system themes, not the app, IMO.

Is a pref necessary?

Yes.


+1. If people really want it, I'd appreciate to be able to disable it.

And at least
with my splitwindow2 patch set something like this is needed to
determine the focused document (each notebook can have an active doc,
but only one of them can be focused at any time).

Only if the splitwindow is actually used.  And even, underlying the tab
might not be the best visual indicator ever, though I can't suggest
something easy that would actually work (I'd think a better one would be
some kind of slightly deactivated editor, but while doable it's a bit
annoying with Scintilla).


Or maybe just a special border around the focused scintilla or nothing at all (except the correct window title, and blinking cursor).

Cheers,
Matthew Brush
