Apologies, might not have explained it very well.

The arrows < > do appear on the vertical scrollbar of the main window, but only when a dialog has the main focus. When the dialog is closed the arrows disappear and will only reappear if another dialog is opened.

Your "proper solution" is probably way beyond my capability. I'll give it some thought though.

Thanks

Alex

Sounds like a Plasma preference, though I find it curious it is visible on

The proper solution probably involves resolving a display problem with GTK on 
Plasma, but you might be able to fake it with the `::before` pseudo element and 
some creative positioning to make it appear to float overlaid on the button. 
That might only work though if you can target each button independently.

Hi everyone

My system is

   Slackware Current
   KDE5 Plasma

with

   gtk+3    3.24.14
   linux    5.4.25
   gnucash  3.8

I have a config file .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css which contains the folllowing

@import 'colors.css';

scrollbar {
   -GtkScrollbar-has-backward-stepper: true;
   -GtkScrollbar-has-forward-stepper: true;
}

scrollbar, scrollbar button, scrollbar slider {
    min-width: 24px;
    min-height: 36px;
This gives me a wide vertical scroll bar with a block at each end where the up 
and down arrows for the scrollbar are supposed to go, under normal operation 
the blocks are blank/empty they don't contain the up/down arrows.

If I click the blocks at each end of the scroll bar they behave as scrolling up 
and down as would be expected.

If I open up a dialog like File->Properties the character < appears in the top 
block and the character > appears in the bottom block of the vertical scroll bar. 
When the dialog is closed these characters disappear.

So two questions

1. How do I get the correct characters to appear at each end of the
   scrollbar i.e. the upward pointing arrow and the downward pointing
   arrow?
2. How do I get these characters to display under normal operation i.e.
   other then when displaying a dialog box?

Thanks
