Using the standard gnome desktop, how do you make the Terminal windows have borders on the left and bottom...












0















When multiple Terminal windows partially overlap, it is difficult to discern where one window starts and the other ends. How do you tell the window manager to draw borders on the left and bottom sides? I'm using a stock standard installation of 17.04 for the desktop (gnome).

    Window borders are defined by the theme. To change only that aspect, you probably would need to edit the style sheet (.css) of the theme.
