I have to disagree a bit about the the duplicates here. This very old bug was when Firefox was using GTK2, and back then the scroll bars in Firefox were GTK2-standard and didn't use the overlay scrollbars (up and down buttons).
All the newer bugs have GTK3 Firefox, and that the scroll bar in Firefox is thin and does not expand, or is not thick by default as in Adwaita. In Adwaita, the scroll bar is already thick and easily handled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/767040 Title: Firefox doesn't use overlay scrollbars Status in Mozilla Firefox: Won't Fix Status in overlay-scrollbar: Won't Fix Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox The Firefox 4 browser in 11.04 doesn't use Unitys scrollbars (the light ones with the up/down button showing as soon as you move the mouse pointer over it). Instead, it uses standard scrollbars. I believe this is an inconsistency in the UI, as other programs (e.g. Nautilus) show them correctly.
