Re: Scrollbar position

[Eric Wasylishen]

Hey Austin,

Yeah, you can just run the following command to get right hand scroll bars:

"defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSScrollViewInterfaceStyle NSMacintoshInterfaceStyle"

I think the Windows and Gnome themes use this setting by default.

For what it's worth, this information should probably be here:

http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/User/Gui/DefaultsSummary.html

but currently isn't.

Cheers.

Eric

Hello All,

I am more than certain that the topic of "scrollbar position" (left vs right) has been beaten to death in the past (I have not been a member of this thread-forum until just two days ago when I joined, but I can only imagine).

**So I will state it now so everyone knows my position: I think it is pretty cool that the scrollbars are on the left, in-fact, I don't really have a problem with it.**

However,

Is there a way to change them from left to right. A user preference? Personally, I think this should be an option on Mac OS X as well, but I doubt that will ever happen. If it was an option on GNUstep then it is something of which I should be aware.  I am absolutely fine; however, if it is not an option and this Left Handed Scrollbar is a paradigm that we wish to continue in honor of NeXTStep/OpenStep (the latter I thought accommodated the platform on which it ran?) Anyways. Lemme know!


Thanks,
Austin
