Title:
Scrollbars are tiny in Firefox (since FF 52)
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
== Update 2018-02-27: While this report was created for Firefox 52
under Ubuntu 16.10, it is still valid for all newer Firefox
version/Ubuntu releases. ==
In Firefox 52, the size of scrollbars has become smaller so that it is
really tiny and hard to grab by the mouse. For me, this is a usability
issue.
The scrollbars were considerably bigger in Firefox 51 and previous
releases. To illustrate this, I have attached two screeenshots for
comparision between Firefox 51 and 52.
While other GTK3-applications (e.g. Gedit) also have very slim
scrollbars, they on the other hand have a mechanismn that makes their
scrollbars broaden automatically when you move the mouse over them, so
grabbing them isn't an issue. If the same would be possible in
Firefox, this would of course be also an acceptable resolution.
Kind regards,
Jan
