======================================================================== https://slackalaxy.com/2021/01/07/gtk3-scrollbar-arrows/ ======================================================================== GTK3 scrollbar arrows Posted: 2021-01-07 | Author: slackalaxy I am not particularly happy with the lack of scrollbar arrows in application windows. Unfortunatelly, this is the default behaviour of GTK3 programs. I already dealt with GTK3 programs automatically hiding the scrollbars, so I decided to get the arrows back, as well. I searched a bit and found this solution in the Linux Mint forums. So, following the instructions, I created ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and added the following contents: /* Scrollbar width fixes */ scrollbar.vertical slider, scrollbar.slider.vertical { min-width: 1em; } scrollbar.horizontal slider, scrollbar.slider.horizontal { min-height: 1em; } /* Steppers */ * { -GtkScrollbar-has-backward-stepper: 1; -GtkScrollbar-has-forward-stepper: 1; } scrollbar button { min-width: 1em; min-height: 1em; } scrollbar.vertical button.down { -gtk-icon-source: -gtk-icontheme("pan-down-symbolic"); } scrollbar.vertical button.up { -gtk-icon-source: -gtk-icontheme("pan-up-symbolic"); } scrollbar.horizontal button.down { -gtk-icon-source: -gtk-icontheme("pan-end-symbolic"); } scrollbar.horizontal button.up { -gtk-icon-source: -gtk-icontheme("pan-start-symbolic"); } undershoot.top, undershoot.right, undershoot.bottom, undershoot.left { background-image: none; } ======================================================================== https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50414957/gtk3-0-scrollbar-on-treeview-scrolledwindow-css-properties-to-control-scrol ======================================================================== I found the that CSS syntax was a little different for the slider. With some experimentation I was able to override the width and height of the slider component. The px units are required for these property values and without them they are ignored. slider { min-width: 28px; min-height: 80px; }
