Modifying Scroll Bars

Is there a way to change the actual dimensions of a scroll bar in CS4, as well as the color of the scroll bar contents? The typical default html scroll bar just seems so large and dominant on a web page and i would like to make the width narrower and to make certain parts transparent or different colors. Any insight would be very helpful! Thanks!!

Custom colored scrollbars are possible in IE only. No other browser supports this.

I would like to know it it's possible to change the scroll bar from the right part of the firefox browser, to the left part and, if it's possible, how can it be done. Thank you!

The scroll bar (the one used to scroll up and down any kind of website), that is normally in the right part of the firefox browser, would be of much help to me if it could sometimes be moved to the left part of the browser. Is this possible? How can it be done? Can anybody tell me the exact steps to take in order to do this (if it is possible of course)? This would be helpfull to me, since I think that the firefox scroll bar is overlaping the scroll part of the facebook chat sidebar, since I just can see a few people on this facebook chat sidebar and I can´t scroll along it, as I could a while ago. So my guess is that the firefox scroll bar is covering the other. In order to solve it in a simpler way, I guessed that if the firefox scroll bar could be moved to the left side of the browser, this problem could be solved. So, can anybody help me?

http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.scrollbar.side
Type '''about:config''' in Location (address) bar
filter for '''layout.scrollbar.side'''
Right-click the Preference and Modify it to '''3'''
You may need to reload any pages open to have scrollbar move to left after Preference change.

Scroll Bar in ALV Top Of Page

Hi Ppl,
I am using REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE to display top of page in ALV. The issue is i want to restrict the top-of-page height.
As of now if i have 10 lines to print...the top-of-page comes with 10 lines in display.
But i want some (say 4 or 5) to be visible with scroolbar and rest can be viewed by use of the scroll--bar movement!!
Any soln?? Please reply
Regards,
Santosh!!

Hi Santosh,
I am not sure if that is possible by using FM approach. - REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
But yes its possible if you are using Docking Container. with split container approach. ie. OOPs .
Refer sample code.

Horizontal Scroll bar Is not working iN REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create a reprot by using REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND, REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY. I have 20 fields to display there, but here last two fields are coming in next row. But I need it it in one line with scroll bar. Cna anybody help me for that.
Either I should use any other FM to display blocks ( 2 tables) or there is any OOps based FM for this with USER_COMMAND.
Your help will be beneficial for me.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Edited by: Moni Bindal on Feb 10, 2009 7:32 AM

Hello Moni,
For increasing the length of columns
try the below code while building the fieldcat,
F_FIELDCAT-COL_POS = 1.
F_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'EBELN'.
F_FIELDCAT-TABNAME = 'IT_EKKO'.
F_FIELDCAT-REF_FIELDNAME = 'EBELN'.
F_FIELDCAT-REF_TABNAME = 'EKKO'.
F_FIELDCAT-KEY = ''.
F_FIELDCAT-EMPHASIZE = 'C510'.
F_FIELDCAT-LOWERCASE = 'X'.
F_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_M = 'PURCHAGE DOCUMENT NUMBER'.
FIELDCAT-OUTPUTLEN = 20.
F_FIELDCAT-HOTSPOT = 'X'.
F_FIELDCAT-DO_SUM = 'X'.
APPEND I_FIELDCAT TO I_FIELDCAT.
Important
FIELDCAT-OUTPUTLEN = 20.
if you are generating the field catalog using FM "REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE" then,
read the field catalog table using the field names and modify the fieldlength
read table F_FIELDCAT with key FIELDNAME = 'MAKTX'.
F_FIELDCAT-OUTPUTLEN = 40.
modify F_FIELDCAT index sy-tabix.
OR
as I suggested earlier, you can shift the block with highest width to top, so all other blocks will also be displayed properly without wrapping to next line.

Text editing window expands instead of creating vertical scroll bar

In the last few days, I have noticed that when I try to edit or post to Wordpress.com the vertical scroll bar no longer appears on the text editing box. Instead the box just gets progressively larger which makes it very difficult to get to other items on the WordPress editing screen, such as tags and categories. This problem seems to have arisen during the v31.0 auto-upgrade. Is anybody else having this issue and what steps can I take to solve it? (FYI, I tried modifying the setting described in another response about a similar issue using the about:config screen, with no success.)

I don't know whether your dashboard has the "Visual" and "Text" buttons, but I believe the Visual uses CKEditor or another WYSIWYG editor and the Text editor might be a simpler design. Are both affected?
I searched around to see whether I could find Wordpress.com support threads or other stories about it and I can't. So I'll fall back on some general suggestions:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove WordPress.com cookies without affecting other sites.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
To rule out extensions as a possible culprit, could you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions, some advanced features, and some custom settings. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* (menu bar) Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Note: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox closes, a small dialog should appear: click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

Vertical Scroll Bar on the device display

Hello,
I had the problem with both horizontal and vertical scroll bars. Managed to get rid of the horizontal scroll bas using the parameters ~itsmobileelemfactor and ~itsmobileelemunits but the vertical scroll bar is still there. As our transactions are developed internally, I managed to sqeeze the screen elements but still the vertical scroll bars are there.
I am testing with Intermec CK3 device with Intermec Browser.
I was going thru this forum and someone has suggested to modify the CSS.
Can someone help me which html parameters are required and under which css class e.g. font size, line-height etc to reduce the overall screen size? I am not good in HTML.
Thanks in advance.

Narottam

Hi Oisin,
Parameters in SE80:
~GENERATEDYNPRO = 1
~ITSMOBILE = 1
~SOURCES = ZZITS_IB_LM00,ITSMOBILE01,ITSMOBILE
~THEME = 99
~TRANSACTION = LM01
Parameters in SICF:
~ITSMOBILE = 1
~TRANSACTION = LM01
~THEME = 99
~SOURCES = ZZITS_IB_LM00, ITSMOBILE01,ITSMOBILE
~POPUPS = 1
~WEBTRANSACTIONTYPE = EWT
~ITSMOBILEDEVICEINCLUDE = ZZ_IBROWSE
~ITSMOBILEELEMFACTOR = 8
~ITSMOBILEELEMUNIT = px
I know you helped me earlier and provided two OSS notes. Those nores are installed.
Again, please let me know what I am missing to get rid of the vertical scroll bar. Strictly we have followed 16X20 screen size which is SAP RF standard.

Narottam

Table Grid resizing,How to avoid getting scroll bar in the browser

Hi All,
Requirement is to enable Grid Resizing feature in the Table UI element. The table will have approx 12-30 columns
For providing this feature on the table UI element, we have set the following properties
'ScrollableColCount' Property of table UI is set to -1.
'Resizable' property of each column is set to true.
This will remove the scrollbar at table level and all the columns will be shown on the screen at one time.
Problem encountered:
1. Horizontal scroll bar will be introduced on the screen.We tried giving width in pixels to individual column grid but unable to eliminate this scroll bar in the screen.
2. Also the resizing properties modified for a table grid will be applied on the similar task screen having table UI element.
For Example: In GP Workflow,if USer1 holds 2 task(Task A and B) of an application. If he resizes the column of the table in A task then these changes will be reflected in the B task table UI also.
Please provide pointers on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Pradeep

Hi,
In table set tablecellEditor wrapping property to true,by default its false.
By this you can get value in many rows(per row size is depend on whatever u have given for column width).
this way you can avoid scroll bar.

JTable can't display column names and scroll bar in JDialog !!

Dear All ,
My flow of program is JFrame call JDialog.
dialogCopy = new dialogCopyBay(frame, "Bay Name Define", true, Integer.parseInt(txtSourceBay.getText()) ,proVsl ,300 ,300);
dialogCopy.setBounds(0, 0, 300, 300);
dialogCopy.setVisible(true); Then,I set the datasource of JTable is from a TableModel.
It's wild that JTable can diplay the data without column names and scroll bar.
I have no idea what's going wrong.Cause I follow the Sun Tutorial to code.
Here with the code of my JDialog.

Dear DB ,

JScrollPane scroll bar trouble on rebuild

I've been working on this for hours (about 4 hours now) without finding the right solution, so maybe someone can help. I searched through a few pages of the forum but didn't see this exact issue. And the tutorial online doesn't help much.
I have a JPanel in a JScrollPane in a JFrame. The JFrame has it's height reduced if its over a particular size (in the test case, it gets reduced). When it first loads, it's fine. However, if I rebuild the whole JFrame (some event causes the JPanel content to change, and refresh() is called again), the window remains the same size but the vertical scroll bar extends off the bottom of the frame. If I manually resize the frame with the mouse (even by 1 pixel), the scroll bar updates and looks correct again. What is the correct way to do this? Calling revalidate() on the JScrollPane after doing the setSize() doesn't do anything. And why does it work the first time when the JFrame is first built through the Constructor?
example code:
public class MyFrame extends JFrame {
    public MyFrame() {
        super();
        refresh();
    private void refresh() {
        JPanel jp = new JPanel();
        jp.setLayout(new SpringLayout());
        // add some stuff to jp
        JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(
            JScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS,
            JScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED
        scrollPane.getViewport().add(jp);
        setContentPane(scrollPane);
        pack();
        if (getHeight() > MAX_HEIGHT) {
            setSize(getWidth(),MAX_HEIGHT);
}

When you have changed the content, call getRootPane().validate(); instead of pack(), as in this slightly modified version of your sample program:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyFrame extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
    private static final int MAX_HEIGHT = 100;
    public MyFrame() {
        super();
        refresh(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyFrame myFrame = new MyFrame();
        myFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        myFrame.setVisible(true);
    private void refresh(boolean pack) {
        JPanel jp = new JPanel();
        jp.setLayout(new BoxLayout(jp,BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
        JButton refreshButton = new JButton("Refresh");
        refreshButton.setActionCommand("refresh");
        refreshButton.addActionListener(this);
        jp.add(refreshButton);
        jp.add(new JLabel("Hello"));
        jp.add(new JLabel("There"));
        jp.add(new JLabel("Why"));
        jp.add(new JLabel("Doesn't"));
        jp.add(new JLabel("Refresh"));
        jp.add(new JLabel("Work"));
        JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(
            ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS,
            ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED
        scrollPane.getViewport().add(jp);
        setContentPane(scrollPane);
        if (pack) {
            pack();
        else {
            getRootPane().validate();
        if (getHeight() > MAX_HEIGHT) {
            setSize(getWidth(),MAX_HEIGHT);
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
        refresh(false);
}

A horizontal Scroll Bar appears when it shouldn't - how do I get rid of it?

Operating System: WIN 8, 8.1
I am using a website (ribbon.me) which has a built in horizontal bar on its Explore TimeMap (basically a combination of a map and calendar into a single tool) that users can grab with the cursor / mouse to move the date forward or backwards in time. There is NOT supposed to be a "standard browser scroll bar" but one is appearing in Chrome. It only appears on my brand new computer...on my old Windows 7 computer, using latest Chrome, the scroll bar doesn't appear. (Even in Internet Explorer on the new computer, the scroll bar doesnt appear...but I dislike IE and LOVE Firefox) How the heck do I get rid of this scroll bar?
Please help!

Additional Data B Tab; screen#8309 scroll bar problem

Hi
I created additional fields to capture Quotation related information. There are about 43 custom fields added to VBAK using append structure.
These have modified the Screen#8309 to include all those fields. Looking at attributes of the screen#8309, it says Occupied 31 lines and 121 columns.
When I execute transaction VA21 and my display is average screen size, I see about 21 lines and scroll bar to see the rest of the screen. When I click on the scroll bar, the rest of previously hidden section of the screen shows blank.
If I maximize my screen, all the fields show up correctly. When the screen is in a reduced size and section that become visible when we use the scroll bar remain blank.
I compared the attributes of screen#8309 and fields I have added with other SAP Screens which are long and run into multiple screens, I don't see anything specific parameter or flag that will initialize the hidden section of the screen.
Question is how to get the hidden section of screen to populate automatically!?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vasava Krishnamoorthy

Found the answer ...
OSS Note# 302497,
There is field "Scrollable" in the field attributes of the subscreen 8309 when you edit screen 4312; this field needs to be turned on ...

Content canvas to stacked canvas for scroll bars

I have a form which has more items. Initially I developed the form with content canvas(this has vertical scroll bar). now I changed this canvas to stacked canvas to get horizontal + vertical scroll bar. But I am not able to do it. Can any one please advice me how to achieve. Basically I need horizontal + veritcal scroll, so that user can easily scroll it.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi
This is a common task in Oracle Applications forms, the steps would be:
- Put the context, fixed fields on content canvas, to the left of the window
- Modify the block to show vertical scroll bar, display it on content canvas, to the right of the window
- Accommodate remaining fields on stacked canvas, all of them from 0.0 to the right.
- Modify stacked canvas viewport size and position to be shown in the space between the fixed fields on the content canvas and the vertical scrollbar on it, allow for space to the horizontal scrollbar
- As Craig's answer states, modify stacked canvas property to show horizontal scrollbar

Add Horizontal Scroll Bar to MII Navigation

Hello,
We are on MII 12.1.8 build (20).
Our client would like to see a horizontal scroll bar for the Navigation pane such that if the Name of the link is longer the navigation page scrolls horizontally but I figured that in MII 12.1 I can only wrap the names or let them expand.
I brought in the DynamicHomePageLibrary.xsl and tried to customized but I am unable to get a proper scroll bar.
Please guide me on how I can add a horizontal scroll bar to MII Navigation page, which lines must be added/modified in DynamicHomePageLibrary.xsl
Thanks,
Adarsh

At line 308 you should see something like this:
<xsl:attribute name="style">z-index=5;display:visible;height:100%;border:1px solid #666;padding:5px;overflow:auto</xsl:attribute>
Try adding a css width like so:
<xsl:attribute name="style">z-index=5;display:visible;height:100%;border:1px solid #666;padding:5px;overflow:auto; width: 250px;</xsl:attribute>
Edited by: Michael Appleby on Aug 17, 2011 12:25 AM added lines after and before the blocks

Scroll bar options in Ubuntu -- need arrow scrolling not block scrolling -- how??

How do I modify the firefox scroll bar -- need the arrows at top and bottom. The block scrolling doesn't work well for certain sites.

I think Firefox relies on the settings in Windows' Mouse control panel, but maybe someone else is aware of some "secret" settings.
You might want to consider using the mouse "wheel" for scrolling the page instead of the scroll bar. Saves a lot of horizontal hand movement.
Note that if you happen to be holding the Ctrl key when you roll the wheel, the page display will zoom. You can use Ctrl+0 (that's zero) to reset it if that happens.
