Description Gregor Mi 2018-04-10 14:00:07 UTC
Recently, I noticed that there are no scrollbar buttons anymore (see for example https://frinring.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/createhellowall.png?w=700&h=537 - vertical scrollbar in the middle). I mean the arrow buttons at the top and bottom of a vertical scrollbar which let you scroll in small steps. Is it possible to bring them back?

That is exactly what I meant. I didn't know this is configurable. Thanks! Is "no buttons" the new default or did I mess up with my settings?

However, the setting did not work for Mozilla Firefox and Libre Office. (I did not relogin, yet.)

setting mentioned in comment 1 only affects QT apps.
Firefox and LO are not QT apps.

Ok, that explains it. I just checked: any GTK app (like GEdit or Inkscape) does not have these scrollbar buttons anymore. Is this only my system or is this a common behavior?
