scrollbars: click to scroll
Hi everyone Here's one for us old-fogies that don't like the new fandangled behavior of scrollbars, moving to where you click instead of scrolling (drives me nuts when scrolling through posts). For GTK do the following: - Create ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini - add the following content [Settings] gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false --source: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/306340 For Firefox itself do this: - go to about:config - right-click and select "New" of type "Integer" - use "ui.scrollToClick" as name and enter value "0" -- source: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/276016 And, if you want your top/bottom buttons on the scrollbar back, have a look here: https://linuxnorth.wordpress.com/2014/06/01/vertical-scroll-bars-in-linux-mi...

Forgot to mention, this applied to Linux Mint MATE edition 18. Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann Dept. of Computer Science University of Waikato, NZ +64 (7) 858-5174 http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ http://www.data-mining.co.nz/
Thanks Peter. Drives me nuts too. Rod On 30 August 2017 at 10:42, Peter Reutemann <fracpete(a)waikato.ac.nz> wrote:

For GTK do the following:
Luckily KDE is not so afflicted. ;)
Already suspected that :-) Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann Dept. of Computer Science University of Waikato, NZ +64 (7) 858-5174 http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ http://www.data-mining.co.nz/
