To make the scrollbar larger open FreeOSX/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

On line 54 where it says "GtkScrollbar ::slider-width = " change the number after the equal sign to: 10

Swap themes to update to the larger size.

Hi,

I like this theme. Used it until today, I have to change for another theme. I got confused by the small scrollbar. I know this is old school to use a scrollbar while most of people use the mouse scroll wheel. But on a long page a scrollbar still scroll faster. Hope you'll have an updated version soon.

Is it Ok to make the scrollbar like that?
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/?content=144972

In my opinion, FreeOSX2 theme is better. It has a preview in the "Appearance Preferences" dialog. And I like the color tone & selected item overall.

May be your theme is already perfect, but please make another version for old fashion people like me who need a traditional scrollbar.

In case you don't mind another request. When there are several opened windows. There titlebar and menu looks pretty similar. It would be nice to make the active window stand out better by making the border of the inactive windows darker.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Is it OK to make the scrollbar more traditional? I suppose you intentionally designed it to be discrete. But personally I find that the current scrollbar is hard to see.

On LinuxMint 11 x64 (same as Ubuntu 11.04). I have disabled the overlay scrollbar to have a permanent scrollbar. But the scrollbar of this theme is too small. It requires some attention to position the mouse accurately. Hope you will be OK to modify.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks, I will try to fix the scrollbar and the nautilus soon, but for the moment I had it very busy.

Very nice thanks. On linuxmint 11 x64 (Gnome 2). Using Nautilus, the split line separating the two panes view (press F3) is a little bit too dim. Also in Nautilus, the status bar looks unfinished. (the status rectangular zone is surrounded by two black lines). Hope this is fixable. Thanks.
