Comment #39 on issue 10949 by [email protected]: Use GTK widget renderering in web content http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10949
@evan: we knew that there'd be complaints. Themes are a very emotional topic. Personally, I am happy with what we have. It is strictly better than what we had before. At least, now I can actually see the scrollbar :-) And if the trade-off is between an exact match of the theme versus security and performance, I know which one I prefer. Ultimately, it would be great if GTK could render pixels into an offscreen buffer without needing an X11 display. There'd still be some difficulties in getting native scrollbars exactly right in this model, but it would go a long way towards this goal. @t.lainson: I thought there was an open bug with regards to making theme changes take effect immediately, and I think Evan Stade was going to work on it. So, we are aware of the problem. This used to work better, but recent changes to how Chrome handles preferences broke this feature, and for now you'll need to restart the browser after making a theme adjustment. @michael.monreal: I believe you can adjust the look and feel of scrollbars with CSS style sheets. And you actually have quite a large amount of control of the appearance. Is this something that can be controlled by extensions? I would suspect so, but I haven't looked in detail at the extension API. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
