Description Lars Vogel CLA 2016-09-12 05:04:37 EDT 
Currently we set a margin of 3px in our window. I suggest to reduce this to the minimal possible value. For right and left we should keep 1px to show the lines for the parts.

For top and bottom margins I suggest to reduce it to zero, I do not see any negative impact in the UI.

It looks great both in Mac and in Win. 

You can see the CSS difference now:
