Just reinstalled Ubuntu Gnome. Previously I would just upgrade from

Somewhere along the way, the scrollbar behavior has changed, and I
can't find out how to get it back.
GNOME 3.6 changed the scrollbar behavior. (This has nothing to do with
Ubuntu's "Ayatana" overlay scrollbars BTW.)
Previously:
left click on scrollbar - scroll the website up or down by one page
(you can also hold the button)
middle click on scrollbar - move the website to the exact position
(you can also drag and move)
right click on scrollbar - nothing
Now:
left click on scrollbar - move the website to the exact position (you
can also drag and move)
middle click on scrollbar - nothing
right click on scrollbar - scroll the website up or down by one page
(you can also hold the button)

https://github.com/gnome-integration-team/firefox-gnome/issues/164.
I couldn't find a more authoritative source since Google is full of
results about Ubuntu's unrelated and earlier scrollbar change.
Skimming over this page brought me to:
http://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2013/08/05/scrolling-in-gtk/
Which confirms, and would probably fall well within "authoritative"...
Now, the scroll arrows are MIA, and when I click on an are of the
scroll bar, it jumps right to that position instead of scrolling a
page at a time in that direction.
Yup.
DCONF editor didn't' seem to hold the answer either....
I think you may change it by creating a ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
with
[Settings]
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = 0

Thank you very much sir. I'll have a look at that.
This seems to have done the trick, thanks. :)
