Bug ID: 160241
Summary: Scrollbar arrows not always visible despite Windows
settings
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: sarah_davie...@hotmail.com
Having a disability affecting my arm control, the move towards hiding (or
worse), removing scrollbar arrows (started by Apple and now seen as an
acceptable sacrifice by Microsoft) has eroded accessibility and general
usability.
Despite using the Windows 11 "Always show Scrollbars" setting (on), the
scrollbar arrows are only visible when I use my mouse alternative (standard
Windows mouse settings) to where the arrows should be.
Please could this be addressed as a major accessibility problem?
To improve accessibility further:
There is respite from this only in the Chrome browser by using the following
extension:

It would give LibreOffice an amazing accessibility boost if negotiations with
developer of the extension, Wesley Branton, to include it in every LibreOffice
application for Windows.
Please, consider this suggestion.
Many thanks,
Sarah
