It would be super helpful to be able to change the color of a tab quickly and easily. Something along the lines of Right click tab > Click Choose Color > Click color from color picker.
Being able to quickly change a tab color would make it easier to identify which file I’m working on when I have multiple tabs open. I could also color code a second tab, let’s say red because that tab has a file open in it that has errors in the code I’m trying to work out.
Since that’s not possible at the moment I suggest using Goto Anything instead, which is usually fast enough to remove the need of having dedicated features like this one.
You can also edit your theme to change the color of selected tab.
This changes it to dark red, with a bright red highlight, for modified and selected tabs on dark schemes:
{
"class": "tab_control",
"attributes": ["dirty", "selected", "file_dark"],
"settings": ["highlight_modified_tabs"],
"layer2.opacity": 1.0,
"layer2.tint": [255, 0, 0],
"layer1.opacity": 0.9,
"layer1.tint": [115, 0, 0],
},
But you can make it work for all selected tabs, like dark red here:
{
"class": "tab_control",
"attributes": ["selected"],
"layer1.opacity": 0.9,
"layer1.tint": [115, 0, 0],
},
