[SOLVED] xfce4-terminal is leaving some annoying space while tiling

Hi there, I am using xfce4-terminal, while I am tilling it's leaving annoying space the bottom and left/right side of the screen. Is there is a way I can fix it?
In the image xfce4-terminal is leaving some space in the bottome-left and right side while google-chrome is using full space.

It doesn't seems to be working.

Is there's way I can replicate these gaps (same as in qtile wm) for all the windows because in the end I want consistency on my pc.

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-terminal is leaving some annoying space while tiling

It works for me if I don't use the system font (specify a font - even the same one) in xfce4-terminal preferences, and then by tweaking the padding. Ultimately, the size of the window depends on the font size and not actual geometry values. By adding some padding, you are moving the font around and as a result affecting the window size.

Just also found this enhancement request that discusses removing WM_NORMAL_HINTS from xfce4-terminal - as a second option.

It is solved, though. Did you try changing the font?
