I always use detailed list view and have a problem with the last column seemingly randomly getting lengthened and then the hor. scroll bar appears which I do want when I have thunar maximized.  I hope this patch wouldn't make the scroll always on in details (I doubt it).  But I mention this as I'm curious if these quirks in libexo are also responsible for the continuing reappearance of the hor. scroll bar in details view.

Hi Benedikt,

The current workaround for the quirk where GTK+ continually tries to
hide and then display the scrollbar allows for some pretty wacky
behavior in Compact List View.  For example, it is possible to resize
the window in such a way that:
1) it becomes impossible to scroll to certain files,

2) you can navigate to certain files, but they won't be displayed, or

3) you can scroll past the last column of files, leaving a blank window.

Therefore, I propose that the horizontal scrollbar in Compact List View
always be visible, whether it is necessary or not.  That would allow you
to get rid of the quirky workaround in libexo.  I have attached patches
for thunar and libexo that do this.
