Re: [Notion-general] Colour coding tabs for applications

[Niels D. <ges...@gm...>]

Hi Alex,

Thanks! Wouldn't that change the background color for all tabs at once,
though? And if not - how would I indicate which application should get
which colour?

To be clear, what I'm trying to do is assign a colour to tabs that
correspond to specific instances of client windows, or types of
applications (say, 'firefox' gets a red background, 'thunar' gets blue,
etc).

And yeah, I'll push it once it works :)

Kind regards,
Niels
