Narrow scroll bar

Post by Bob Coleman »

I just installed Version 9.2 Build 358.0 (previously using Version 9.1 Build 356.0) and notice that the vertical scroll bar has become very narrow. Is there any way to set it back to it's former size?

Hello, Bob Coleman

At the moment, no, the scrollbar cannot be configured, It does grow when you mouseover the scrollbar itself, but this was a stylistic decision, and is not likely to change very much for the next few years (before we do another visual overhaul).

Much like every time we make changes to the appearance of the software, there are many people who preferred the old styles, and many who adore the new one. There is no pleasing everyone (especially with visuals), and trying to do so will result in a far more bloated program than we are comfortable offering. We are making minor tweaks to the UI at this point, but another major refactor (including things like scrollbars) is not in the books for a few years at least.

Kind regards,

Obviously not the answer I was hoping for, but thanks for the prompt response as always.

Hello Bob Coleman,

It was actually Dan who wrote above, Paul thought it was me :)

So there is no specific list of those tweaks, but we would be making small improvements!

Kind regards,
Stefan
