Actually, when I saw the transparency, I immediately checked whether it wasn't Chrome's default behavior on Linux ;-) (given that I switched from Windows less than a week ago, it woudln't have surprised me much that I wouldn't have noticed it, as much things I read don't have an horizontal scrollbar, and thus wouldn't need transparency on the vertical scrollbar either). > Is there any bug tracker you don't know by heart? :) > I didn't actually know that bug until 2 mins before sending the previous message: I just search on crbug.com for "scroll bar opacity". You don't need to know things by heart when you have a good search engine ;-) (well, I have a good memory, so things regularly "ring a bell", and the search engine is then just the mean to find it back) -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors
