Welcome to the tilda wiki! Feel free to edit and update this wiki with tip or documentation on how to use tilda.

Known issues

Tilda requires the window manager to enable workarounds you can do this by opening the dconf-editor and deactivating the disable-workarounds flag under org.gnome.desktop.preferences.

Boarder Issues

Several users have reported issues with the border if there is more than one tab open. Other users have reported that they cannot distinguish the active tab from the other tabs. These issues are related to the theme that is used for GTK+ and the environment in which tilda is executed. For example if Gnome's Adwaita theme is used then these issues do not exist.

It is not possible to define a setting in tilda which overrides the notebook border or tab style, because it will have different effects depending on which theme is in use. To solve any theme related issues there are two options, either use the Gnome default theme, or place a style.css file in ~/.config/tilda/style.css and overwrite any style you like.

Here are some examples:

To adjust the padding of the tabs (GtkNotebook) use this:

.notebook {
    padding: 0px;
}

A more thorough example is this one:

GtkWindow#Main {
    #background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
    background-color: #000000;
}

GtkWindow#Main .notebook {
    padding: 0px;
}

GtkWindow#Main .notebook tab GtkLabel {
    padding-left: 15px;
    padding-right: 15px;
    color: #505050;
}

GtkWindow#Main .notebook tab {
    background-color: #101010;
}

GtkWindow#Main .notebook tab:active {
    #background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85);
    background-color: #181818;
}
