Page zoom and the scroll bars

[[2054]]

I'm not sure if it's sensible for the scroll bars to change size with page zoom levels. Why should this browser element not have a constant size?

Scroll bars don't change size when you change the zoom level of pages (content). If they do, then it may be the result of an add-on you are using?

The only add-on I use to change page zoom levels is NoSquint. My scroll bars do not change size whether I'm using NoSquint or not. This applies to Pale Moon in both Windows 7 and linux Mint 17.

I am getting scroll bars increasing/decreasing in size with the zoom level, but only with my usual FT DeepDark theme enabled. Using the default theme keeps the scroll bars constant. Could this be a bug with the way the browser handles themes of this sort? Or is the bug on the theme's side entirely?

[Moonchild]

I tried a few full themes, and they don't scale the scroll bars, so I think it's likely something in the specific theme you use.
Can anyone else verify this?

I just tried out a selection of complete themes from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... ete-themes

All of the ones I tried scaled the scroll bars.

Any specific extensions your are running then, that might influence this? Any zooming add-ons, UI changers, etc.?

[Evil Moo]

My only active extensions are Stylish, NoScript, AdBlock Plus and the British English Dictionary.

Additionally, I just tried disabling them all, with no effect on the scroll bar zooming.

Also, in the outside chance that it makes a difference, my userContent.css and userChrome.css:

userContent:

Code: Select all

:focus {outline:none;}
::-moz-focus-inner {border:0;}

@-moz-document url("about:blank") {html{background-color: black;}}

userChrome:

Code: Select all

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] .tab-text
{
	color: #d0d0d0 !important;
	-moz-opacity: 1 !important;
	margin-top : 1px !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:hover .tab-text
{
	-moz-opacity: 0.85 !important;
}

#appmenu-button
{
	background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(96,83,147,1), rgba(48,45,66,1), rgba(134,135,187,1)) !important;
}

#appmenu-button:hover
{
	background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(126,113,177,1), rgba(78,75,116,1), rgba(134,135,187,1)) !important;
}

#appmenu-button:-moz-window-inactive
{
	background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(96,83,147,0.4), rgba(48,45,66,0.3), rgba(134,135,187,0.4)) !important;
}

browser
{
	background-color: #000 !important;
}

Though I haven't consciously done anything to affect the scroll bars in these.

What about this?
dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars;false

That preference is false for me. Setting it to true makes no difference.
