[Bug 1500307] [NEW] xubuntu does not disable gtk overlay scrollbars (i.e. use solid scrollbars)

 

Public bug reported:

xubuntu does not disable gtk overlay scrollbars (i.e. use solid
scrollbars)

On this page http://tracker.xubuntu.org/ in the source code, Sean Davis
is assigned to disable gtk3.16 overlay scrollbars in xubuntu-default-
settings (i.e. use solid scrollbars) and
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/xubuntu-w-development
shows also that the work is done.

I am running xubuntu 15.10 beta 2 and this is not the case.

Opening up ubuntu-modified programmes shows solid scrollbars (like the
non-csd-ized, non-header-bar-ized evince), but synaptic shows overlay
scrollbars.

I find it very annoying. There is no visual clue of a scrollbar until I
move my mouse over the window, and unlike Android or iOS scrollbars, the
width changes and the transparency changes depending on how close my
mouse is.

Very hard to use.

Please fix.
