Good to know you found a solution. Maybe add some or all of this to the Wiki? Regards, Adrien > On Mar 19, 2020 w12d79, at 10:03 AM, mcmurchy1917techy via gnucash-user > wrote: > > I seem to have a resolution that works for me. > > I've kept as packaged the /usr/share/themes/Breeze/gtk-3.0/gt

Thanks for that info. I do recall now a push to move away from VCL for LibreOffice. Regards, Adrien > On Mar 19, 2020 w12d79, at 9:48 AM, mcmurchy1917techy via gnucash-user > wrote: > > I've not read about Firefox being GTK however it seems to respect changes to > .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css >

I've not read about Firefox being GTK however it seems to respect changes to .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css I've read a blog by one of the libreoffice developers ( https://caolanm.blogspot.com/2019/10/native-gtk-dialogs-in-libreoffice.html ) where it's stated that Over the last few major releases t

I didn’t think either Firefox or LibreOffice were GTK. I thought each had its own toolkit. GIMP is GTK (it was originally the GIMP Tool Kit) as is Gedit. (among others belonging to the Gnome desktop suite) Maybe try installing something like those and seeing what the scrollbars do. Regards, Ad

Sorry, I sent too fast and read too slowly. If the arrows only appear on the main window when a dialog has focus, but not when the main window has focus, that would seem backwards to me. You might have a bug there. (which might still be part of a GTK on Plasma conflict) Regards, Adrien > On M

The full screen / off full screen makes no difference. The character in the scroll bar up/down buttons is missing. So far I've now looked at three GTK3 based applications - gnucash, libreoffice and firefox. For all three applications, I can alter the width of the scrollbar by editing the app

Again, sounds like a preference in Plasma, though perhaps a design choice of Plasma, or even GTK. I’m surprised you still have the scroll bar at all if that window doesn’t have focus. There may not be an easy solution if that behavior is by design without an exposed preference to change it. R

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 prob

Is your main window set to full screen? If so, do the buttons appear properly when you take it off full screen? A quick work around might be to size the window to fill the screen but not use the full-screen setting. Then you know where to look for a setting or report a bug to either GTK or Plas

Sounds like a Plasma preference, though I find it curious it is visible on dialogs but not the main window. 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
