Appearance of Border of active pane

[dacarab]

Hi - thanks for the article, big fan of this feature. Having trouble working out how to set the appearance of the active pane border as per the screenshots - for me (in PS 7), the border for the active pane is the same as the others, so a little hard to see which pane is actually active.

I tried out the Raspberry color scheme referenced in the article, and I see that is a little better, but doesn't include the blue border setting that is depicted in the article's screenshots.

If a line or two could be added to this doc on how to set that, would be superb.

After some digging, I see that I can set this through the "accent colour" of the windows theme currently rather than in settings.json, however still not sure how to increase the width of the border - for me even setting this colour to something that stands out, the border between panes is too narrow to easily spot it.

FWIW, those elements aren't configurable yet. They're tracked on the actual Terminal source repo though:

• Add a setting to manually set the Pane border width Add a setting to manually set the Pane border width microsoft/terminal#3063
• Add a setting to manually set the Pane highlight color Add a setting to manually set the Pane highlight color microsoft/terminal#3061

So I'm gonna close this as "tracking upstream".

Thanks!
