I would like my bar and terminals to have the same background color. I also like to keep ``hide_edge_borders both`` which means that the bar and adjacent terminals run together. It would be nice to have the ability to separate them without using ``hide_edge_borders vertical`` (which adds a border on the bottom of the screen as well). Perhaps, something along the lines... bar { position top color { border_bottom #rrggbb } } or bar { position bottom color { border_top #rrggbb } } Mon, 27 Jan 2014 21:13:03 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3320/bar-topbottom-border/Answer by joepd for <p>Is there any way to put a bottom border on a bar positioned at the top of the screen?</p> <p>I would like my bar and terminals to have the same background color.
