@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (Feb 21, 2023):

That's the space that's reserved for the scroll bar. That's why the right side seems to have more "padding" than the other sides. Neovim might be using the alt buffer, and not need the scrollbar, but it's still there.

The crux of the issue here is that your neovim scheme uses a different color than the "default background" color, which means you can see the padding in the default BG color around the outside of the actual text viewport. In the past I believe we've called this by design. That's what neovim asked for, so we gave it to them.

Now, one could maybe do some sort of dumb heuristc to try and fix this. Maybe something with the alt buffer, and recieving a clear screen with a non-default BG color. Maybe something to look in to...

I've been considering to just extend the closest background pixel to the edge of the viewport like so:
D3D11_TEXTURE_ADDRESS_CLAMP

(D3D11_TEXTURE_ADDRESS_CLAMP and D2D1_EXTEND_MODE_CLAMP respectively.)

Hi @redfer13. Thanks for the feedback. You make a good point. We're actually going to consolidate this with #10422 to track it better.

/dup #10422

Ubuntu installs a so called "fragment" to override the default color scheme for its Windows Terminal profile. To change it

  • Open the settings
  • Click on the Ubuntu profile
  • Click on "Appearance"
  • Change the color scheme from "Ubuntu-ColorScheme" to whatever you prefer ("Campbell" is the default).
