Hidden Scrollbars #93

Closed billdami closed 12 years ago

billdami commented 12 years ago

I noticed in the latest version of the theme (soda-dark, as of 8/3/2012) that scrollbars are now hidden by default, and only appear when using the mouse wheel to scroll. Any way to customize the theme to turn this off, so the scrollbars are always visible and displayed in scrollbar tracks like they were before this change?

Thanks!

Not sure what the deal might be. There shouldn't have been a change introduced that altered the handling of the scrollbar display from earlier releases, but if you can let me know a bit more about your setup I can have a look into it.

What OS are you on? And can you tell me the value of the setting overlay_scroll_bars in both your Sublime Text default preferences file, and user preferences file?

The default for Sublime Text is to honour the OS default, which for OS X Lion onwards is to use overlay (eg. hidden) scrollbars, but this can be overridden via preferences.

The settings for the scrollbar style can be configured as follows:

// Valid values are "system", "enabled" and "disabled"
"overlay_scroll_bars": "system"

So, if you want to force regular scrollbars, you'd set overlay_scroll_bars to disabled.

Thanks for the quick response, the issue is resolved now. I'm on a Macbook Pro w/ OS X Lion, and I think what happened is when I noticed the issue I didn't have my mouse connected, and my system "Show Scroll Bars" preference was set to "Automatically based on input device". And since overaly_scroll_bars setting is set to "system" for Sublime Text, the scrollbars were hidden. Anyway, all good now. :)
