Compton shadows issue

I use openbox WM with compton and when I move tab in google-chrome, I see ugly shadow:

How to remove shadows from this?

Change the arguments you launch compton with? Compton isn't a window manager btw, it's a compositor.

There were a couple of other threads recently about chrom{e,ium} tab titles not displaying correctly, search them out and see what they have to say on the matter.

Sorry, but I found nothing.
I tried to put "shadow-exclude = [ "n:e:google-chrome" ]" in ~/.compton.conf, but it didn't work. Options [ "n:a:i:google-chrome" ] and [ "i:a:i:google-chrome" ] didn't work too.

I don't use a .compton.conf, but try 'i:ai:google-chrome', or 'n:ai:google-chrome'. Assuming it is a shadow-based problem.

The topic I was referring to is on the first page of Applications & Desktop Environments, and there's several relevant results on google: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=site%3Abbs.archlin … romium+tab

Thanks, 'i:ai:google-chrome' works. But is there any way to disable shadow just around tab, and not the entire window?

I sincerely doubt it.
