[kde] [Bug 220733] Option to hide scrollbars system wide
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220733 --- Comment #11 from Nate Graham --- We had a phab task for that but I can't find it anymore. :/ TBH people seemed pretty burned out on the scrollbar stuff by the time we finalized the current finally-consistent approach, so I dunno how much desire there will be to revisit the situation. :) I think the status quo makes some intuitive sense though: on the desktop, you get traditional desktop-style scrollbars, while on mobile, or on the desktop with touch, you get skinny mostly-disappearing mobile-style scrollbars. I don't think there's really that much demand for mobile-style scrollbars on the desktop. Most of the feedback we got about this over the years was negative. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220733 --- Comment #10 from Dhaval Patel --- You are correct, the original intent was to just hide them similar to what the other KDE applications did. Should I open another ticket for this enhancement to follow the behavior/implementation that macOS provides? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220733 --- Comment #9 from Nate Graham --- That's a different thing from what I thought you originally proposed. Hidden until in use is a very different thing from "hidden". Either way what we have now is that scrollbars are visible when using a desktop-style environment, but when using QML-based apps with touch, they become very very tiny and overlay style so they don't take up space or get in the way. It was hoped that this would be the best of both worlds. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220733 --- Comment #8 from Dhaval Patel --- This is unfortunate because I have been using macOS on my work laptop and they have a really nice implementation where the scrollbars are visible only when scrolling and they do not take up any space on any scrollable elements. As you can see from the screenshot, users can have the previous behavior or select this. It would be a great feature that I am sure lots of people would find useful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

In addition to their interactive properties which are useful for non-expert users, scrollbars help you see where you are in the view relative to the top and bottom. Without these kinds of visual clues, navigating scrollable in views can be very disorienting, even for experts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
