Cory F Cohen <cfco...@verizon.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |cfco...@verizon.net --- Comment #11 from Cory F Cohen <cfco...@verizon.net> --- I am not handicapped, and I have trouble with the tiny scrollbars in my HiDPI configuration. I think that debating whether someone needs the ability to configure the option is substantially off-target, especially if it's an accessibility issue for THEM. If the problem on the developer's end is an "interface complexity" issue, why not provide a config file that can be edited to adjust the scroll bar width? This shouldn't affect perceived complexity for the average user at all. Having said that I'll attempt to respond to Nate's most recent (rhetorical?) question: The scroll bar in my configuration is substantially more narrow than most other controls which are typically square and much larger. My scrollbars appear to be 10 pixels wide, which at 160dpi is less than a 1/16th of an inch. The scroll bars in Firefox in the default configuration were even smaller, probably 1/24th of an inch. I would like for the scroll bars to be at least twice as large, and possibly more like 3 times as large as they are currently, which would make them comparable in size to most other controls in my configuration. There's an enormous number of questions on the Internet about this, and three-quarters of them do not work or are horribly out-of-date. For example, Christoph Feck's link in this ticket to global strut is from more than 12 years ago, recommending qtconfig that hasn't worked since Qt5, which came out 8.5 years ago. There's also a lot of talk about editing files in /usr/share/themes but this doesn't seem to really work either. My impression is that file is for controlling Breeze compatibility in GTK apps, not native KDE & Breeze, although I'll admit that maybe I just don't understand how that works or how to test it (nobody else really seems to understand either in my experience). I think the real problem here is that without a GUI settings control or at least reliable advice on what to do nobody can figure out how to fix this problem when they have it. If there's a system configuration change that will alter the scrollbar width system side in Breeze, can someone please mention it here? For the original poster, who seemed mostly interested in fixing the problem in their web browser... In Firefox 89.0.1, entering "about:config" into the address bar, and then changing the value of widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.size produced the desired result in Firefox in my configuration. Now if only I could get the same effect in all other Breeze/KDE applications... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
