The current implementation of the CTabFolderRenderer class (as well as its Platform UI extended version - CTabRendering) uses plenty of hard coded values that are not clear. It would be perfect to calculate it or at least expose it by some constants
Noticed that some examples in https://github.com/jeeeyul/eclipse-themes uses rounded corners at the top and "sharp" corners at the bottom. If we adjust a similar change, I think we can reduce the padding. Reopening to have a "reminder" bug for this investigation.
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
Overall, I don't think we should close this bug since this work should still be done at some point. The CTabRendering implementation is full of hard coded values... not to mention that changing some of the constant values doesn't produce the expected results in many cases. In my honest opinion, this class suffers from feature bloat and it is not easy to maintain as a result. Realistically, this is the type of UI area that needs visual documentation to define and align expectations of behavior.
Please reopen if the problem still persists.
Still relevant.
