Add option to disable scrollbar
ripdog opened this issue · comments
I simply scroll my tabs with my mouse wheel, so the scrollbar is both ugly and unnecessary. It's already possible to remove the scrollbar, by setting extensions.treestyletab.tabbar.narrowScrollbar.size
to 0.1px (0 breaks it for some reason).
I think a GUI option for this would be nice for less technical people.
I recommend you to do it by userChrome.css, instead of about:config. For example:
.tabbrowser-tabs[treestyletab-mode="vertical"]
.tabbrowser-arrowscrollbox > scrollbox {
overflow-y: hidden !important;
}
I think a GUI option for this would be nice for less technical people.
Thank you for a suggestion. However, I have no plan to add the option by some reasons:
- The scrollbar works as an indicator to show the visible area of the list of all tabs.
- I'm mainly using the scrollbar for the purpose. So, I won't hide it for me.
- I'm believing that it will help most really-non-technical users who require GUI.
- Highly technical users are already able to hide it by userChrome.css (or about:config, like you.)
- In old days I developed "Tabbrowser Extensions" (TBE) including many many tips options, like Tab Mix Plus. I couldn't maintain TBE for Firefox 2 (not 20!) anymore, because those too many options (I never used - I added them from users' voice) really increased the number of codes. So I decided to reject requests of new features if it can be done easily in other ways.
I think it would be a nice addition
An alternative way to hide the scrollbar is to visit about:config and set
extensions.treestyletab.tabbar.narrowScrollbar.size
to 0.10px
and then of course select "Narrow scrollbar" in TreeStyleTab's options.
