Agreed - as mentioned in my comment on #779416 reproduced above in comment #51 ;
The overlay scrollbar works just fine with Galileo on Natty, provided you remove this environment variable from the startup script. GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true This was originally a workaround for the problems mentioned in #443004 (and it's many dupes). As far as possible, I've tested for these problems and they no longer seem to occur. It would seem the original GTK bug that caused these problems has been resolved. I REALLY LIKE the new scrollbars for Eclipse - because it has so many panels, overlay scrollbars mean you gain quite a lot of space that would otherwise just be full of scrollbar obscuring useful information. I was annoyed when I tried out Eclipse on Oneiric and discoverer that it's been blacklisted for the scrollbars. Please * Don't blacklist Eclipse for the overlay scrollbars - they work just fine IF you do the next thing * Remove the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true variable from the startup script on Natty (and other supported revisions) ** I note that on Oneiric, the startup script for Eclipse has been replaced by the normal Eclipse binary loader. I think this is why the Oneiric release of Eclipse sees the return of the main major annoyance with Eclipse on Ubuntu - no update sites configured. But that's a job for another bug. But you can't remove the env variable from the Oneiric startup script, because there isn't one now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769277 Title: Eclipse shows overlay scrollbar but when i hover there is no scroll handles To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-scrollbar/+bug/769277/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
