Public bug reported:
Not sure if this is a Compiz bug, but it's related to windows
management. The type of scroll bar used in gnome-terminal was also the
same as that in Firefox before I upgraded my system to Ubuntu 14.10 at
the same time I upgraded Firefox to version 34 or so (so either Firefox,
or some other program changed how scrollbars look).
Switching to windows that use 'thin scroll bar', only ~3 pixels wide
with no arrows
If done quickly, it works fine as long as the mouse cursor is pointing
at the window being focused to. If done slowly, by pressing alt-tab and
holding alt, the scroll bar will disappear or become faded. Faded
scrollbar is when alt is held for a very short period of time, so the
application switcher menu only shows up for ~0.1 sec.
Using static application switcher in compiz.
Window's shadow border also sometimes longer to appear if alt is held,
but it doesn't seem consistent or related to scrollbar.
The 'invisible' part is an overlay that's the same colour as the
background. If scrolling up or down, when the line representing the
current location moves past the 'invisible' part, it's erased, so that
if the line representing the visible portion is returned to that area,
the 'invisible' part is smaller.
Nautilus, gedit, and gnome-terminal all seem to be affected by this bug.
The line isn't totally invisible, but being able to see it could depend
on having an LCD screen that provides high contrast near the white range
at that viewing angle. All three of these applications are demonstrating
the bug for me right now, but I'm not sure if they always do.
