1. Yes, you can see this in your screenshot with the `Output` region. I don't think adding _another_ level of inconsistency with multiple tab colours is the right approach. In some ways, I'd prefer the tab colour to be as my first image - it fixes the other problem you raise! 2. Not many other options while not losing the current focus utility that FlatLaf has. 3. There isn't a border, there's padding. If we wanted one, we could make it the same as the tab separator colour. I'm not against borders - I have an issue with adding gradients to a flat look and feel. If you look at the examples you shared from other software, a border alone (unless it's the accent colour) is not enough. Border or not, they work because of contrasting inactive tab background. @Chris2011 made that point too. 4. I think it should be clear where the window regions are. So having the dividers the same colour as the toolbar and status bar makes sense unless we add yet another colour. FlatLaf already has this blurring problem. But if you want the active tab to be the toolbar colour (rather than current default), it's going to blend into those. Maybe we should tweak to draw the tab separator line at the start as well? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
