Hiding scrollbars #32

Open bakteria1 opened 7 years ago

bakteria1 commented 7 years ago

Is there any way to hide scrollbars globally?

tailorvj commented 7 years ago

Please try to install the following Chrome extension to the chromium browser on FullPageOS and tell me if it satisfies your use case

Kind regards, Tailor

bakteria1 commented 7 years ago

The chrome store would not let me download the extention since "chrome was out of date"

tailorvj commented 7 years ago

We'll update chromium for the next release and see how it affects this issue. Could you please open this as a new issue decribing you inability to install extensions from the webstore due to the "chrome was out of date" issue?

guysoft commented 7 years ago

Can you write down what version is needed and what is the current version, so we can confirm its in 0.6.0 RC1?

Im also looking for a solution to hide the scrollbar, default you could use "disable-overlay-scrollbar" but i dont know where to put this.

guysoft commented 7 years ago

Overlay scrollbar means you have scrollbars that take up no active screen real-estate. A scroll appears when the pointer is in proximity to the scrollbar. Enabling overlay scrollbar might actually hide it. Here is how to do it: http://www.skipser.com/p/2/p/enable-overlay-scrollbar-google-chrome.html

The other way is to hide the scrollbar using CSS. Something like this worked for me

G3z commented 6 years ago

@tdusmoha even if you do this the greyed scrollbars appears. @mrozendaal thank to you i was able to fix this.

just edit /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/00-rpi-vars and add --enable-overlay-scrollbar (or disable)

@guysoft : wouldn't it be nice to reference this file in the readme (if someone has a link to a list of chomium flags it would be nice too)

guysoft commented 6 years ago

@G3z sure. PRs are welcome :)

G3z commented 6 years ago

@guysoft I tought a wiki would be more fitting https://github.com/guysoft/FullPageOS/wiki/Chromium-configuration I hope you don't mind

guysoft commented 6 years ago

@G3z excellent

Hello, first time posting on GitHub. I stumbled upon this as my company wanted to run a website with various marketing related images in our lobby and I was able to get it set up and work fine, however the scroll bars are definitely bugging me. I don't know what file to edit based on the above info. Nothing I see on the SD card matches. Can someone help with more detailed instructions?

guysoft commented 9 months ago

@IXIcOrDLeSsIXI Hey and welcome to github. And FullPageOS repo in particular. The file is located on the raspberrypi on /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/00-rpi-vars . You will need basic Linux knowledge to edit that file from within the operating system on your Pi. I am not able to cover beyond that because its out of the scope of this repository.
