Hi everyone,

sort-of a duplicate of THIS and THIS... but damn, is this implemented yet? and if not... why?

I am trying to theme my windows terminal (Switching from Linux...)! Is there a property where I can set the terminal tab colour for a specific profile? Like, if my profile uses background colour #2f2833, I'd want the tab colour to match. Basically, I don't want it to look like THIS (cringe)

I'd want it to look like THIS as soon as I open a new terminal instance:

Sorry for the big screenshots (also sorry if this has already been answered, it's just a major pet peeve when I know this is possible!)

Thanks,
Zack
