SUMMARY
I can reproduce with Vivaldi and Chromium browsers. I think this can be a bug in KDE software because I'm unable to reproduce with the same version of Vivaldi on Fedora 43 running Gnome 49.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install Vivaldi or Chromium on a operating system running KDE Plasma DE
2. open the installed browser
3. load a long webpage
4. observe the scroll bar

OBSERVED RESULT
scroll bar without arrows. Please compare the attached screenshots.

EXPECTED RESULT
scroll bar with arrows, like on Gnome 49

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0
Qt Version: 6.10.0
Graphics Platform: Wayland

Thanks for the bug report. I don't see the bug on Plasma built from git-master or 6.5.3

Can you confirm the bug exists with one of the default Breeze icon themes?

Moving to kwin, which draws windows

I can reproduce with default Breeze icon theme. Can also reproduce with Oxygen, Papirus, McMojave circle and Newaita-reborn icon themes.

If it happens with multiple themes, it's almost certainly something Chromium does wrong, not something we can fix.

Do note that KWin draws window decorations, but merely *copies* window contents to the screen. It doesn't draw anything into windows, that's entirely up to each application.
