--- Comment #3 from Stefan Knorr (astron) <[email protected]> --- Ha. This is a fun problem, because on the other hand, most OS's are working on removing or shrinking scrollbars, so people have to use touchscreens/touchpads/ mouse scroll wheels. * Ubuntu generally uses overlay scrollbars that are two pixels wide (LibreOffice luckily doesn't support this) * Mac OS uses disappearing scrollbars (I don't think we support this either, but I am not a Mac user) * Gnome uses the scrollbars you can see in the screenshot (Hey, LibreOffice supports them!) * Windows 8 "Metro" mode uses huge, but disappearing scrollbars (LibreOffice doesn't support the "Metro" mode) * Windows 8 Desktop mode uses normal scrollbars (Phew ... but at the same time, Microsoft would rather do away with it) * Elementary OS (customised Ubuntu) uses extremely small scrollbars (we support them, and it is terrible … we can be glad they don't have a large marketshare) So, in summary, I think the only solution here is to move the tabs out of the scrollbar. Some options: 1. Draw them in the status bar, although that is probably undesirable, because: * It renders Calc unusable to anyone who tries to remove the status bar – so we'd need a backup placement * Supposedly, the status bar has the word "status" in it for a reason * As you can see from the screenshot, it would become a question where to put bottom-docked toolbars * Rather small space available 2. Give them a full line of screen space, below the scrollbar * may waste some space, but everyone who is using lots of sheets would probably be pretty happy * would allow to draw native tabs (which would make me personally rather happy) – although the sheet colours may stand in the way of getting native tabs 3. Steal some space from the formula bar * Would allow drawing native tabs (if the tab colouring thing worked with native tabs) * Would make the space pretty crammed * There would need to be an alternate solution for people who hide the formula bar (although that is probably rare) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
