Controlling Tab Style with Monad.Layout.SubLayouts

Hi, I'm using Monad.Layout.SubLayouts to combine multiple windows using a tabbed layout. This is working great. However, the tab that is created is kind of large. Is there some way to control this? Thank you, -- There are 10 types of people, those who know binary and those who don't.

Hi Eyal, I'm not too familiar with XMonad.Layout.Decoration to know if it is able to draw tabs in the style that you're asking for. If you can figure out a theme (or write such a theme) then you can repeat the definition of subTabbed, except replace the: addTabs shrinkText defaultTheme With: addTabs shrinkText betterTheme -- Adam

Decoration can do so but addTabs can't; the theme only controls font and colors, not the size of the tab. You would need to reimplement addTabs with a different tab sizing mechanism. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net

That's unfortunate, but good to know what the options are.
Thank you.
