 Posted: Mon May 23, 2005 8:30 am Post subject: xterm's white border - can't remove! [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Hi
I've emerged xorg-x11-6.8.2-r1 and xterm-202, and I see a one-pixel-wide white border around xterm (I use black background in xterm). This is not a window manager issues since I tried it under plain X too, but I've been unable to find any configuration options (or X resources) for xterm that would disable this white border. Does anyone know how to remove it?

this what I did:
type
search for border
result:
| Code: |
-b number
This option specifies the size of the inner border (the distance between
the outer edge of the characters and the window border) in pixels. The
default is 2.
-w number
This option specifies the width in pixels of the border surrounding the
window. It is equivalent to -borderwidth or -bw.
The following standard X Toolkit command line arguments are commonly used with
xterm:
-bd color
This option specifies the color to use for the border of the window. The
default is ``black.''
-bg color
This option specifies the color to use for the background of the window.
The default is ``white.''
-bw number
This option specifies the width in pixels of the border surrounding the
window.
iconBorderColor (class BorderColor)
Specifies the border color for the active icon window if this feature is
compiled into xterm. Not all window managers will make the icon border
visible.
iconBorderWidth (class BorderWidth)
Specifies the border width for the active icon window if this feature is
compiled into xterm. The default is 2. Not all window managers will make
the border visible.
iconFont (class IconFont)
Specifies the font for the miniature active icon window, if this feature is
compiled into xterm. The default is "nil2".
internalBorder (class BorderWidth)
Specifies the number of pixels between the characters and the window bor-
der. The default is 2.

| Thanks a lot, ikaro! Using "-bd black" fixed the problem (I haven't tried to use this option in the manual at first, because it states that the default color is "black" anyway). Apparently, the default switches to "white" because I'm using reverse video option. |
