The viewer scrollbar

dan2the6th · 10-10-2019, 04:09 PM

OK, so the scrollbar returned from the dead in version 4.1 of the viewer.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned in the blizzard of other gripes, but now the scrollbar appears when I don't want it to. Every time I open the viewer, the scrollbar is there, even though I have "Show a scrollbar" unchecked. If I check the box, then uncheck it again, the scrollbar goes away, but the next time I start the viewer, there it is again.

I don't really WANT the scrollbar. Any plans to fix this? (And this is not a major rant, just a nitpick. All in all, I like V4.)

I suspect it has been fixed - Kovid has made a couple of changes related to the scroll bar since version 4.1 was released, see ==>> https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/commits/master

They'll be in the next release.

OK, thought that might be the case. Thank you.
