Title: OS3.2 - Reaction giant scrollbars
Post by: gazsp on June 14, 2023, 05:40:17 PM

Hi all,

I'm running 3.2 with a screen mode of 960x540 (half 1920x1080), and the Reaction vertical scrollbars are giant! Is there any hidden environment variable / preference settings I can twiddle to make them smaller?

Cheers,
Gaz.

The obvious sys:prefs/reaction doesn’t work? Try a "thin" style.

Nope. The style setting (Thin / Xen etc) affects the gadget border thickness, not the actual width of the gadget itself.

I think the issue is Reaction is using some aspect ratio calculation somewhere, and as the screen is 16:9 I get vertical scroll bars that are wider than they need to be. Might file it as a bug report on the Hyperion forums.

Cheers,
Gaz.
