Hiding scrollbars

Open bakteria1 opened this issue 8 years ago • 13 comments

Is there any way to hide scrollbars globally?

Please try to install the following Chrome extension to the chromium browser on FullPageOS and tell me if it satisfies your use case

Kind regards, Tailor

The chrome store would not let me download the extention since "chrome was out of date"

We'll update chromium for the next release and see how it affects this issue. Could you please open this as a new issue decribing you inability to install extensions from the webstore due to the "chrome was out of date" issue?

Can you write down what version is needed and what is the current version, so we can confirm its in 0.6.0 RC1?

Im also looking for a solution to hide the scrollbar, default you could use "disable-overlay-scrollbar" but i dont know where to put this.

Overlay scrollbar means you have scrollbars that take up no active screen real-estate. A scroll appears when the pointer is in proximity to the scrollbar. Enabling overlay scrollbar might actually hide it. Here is how to do it: http://www.skipser.com/p/2/p/enable-overlay-scrollbar-google-chrome.html

The other way is to hide the scrollbar using CSS. Something like this worked for me

@tdusmoha even if you do this the greyed scrollbars appears. @mrozendaal thank to you i was able to fix this.

just edit /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/00-rpi-vars and add --enable-overlay-scrollbar (or disable)

@guysoft : wouldn't it be nice to reference this file in the readme (if someone has a link to a list of chomium flags it would be nice too)

@G3z sure. PRs are welcome :)

@guysoft I tought a wiki would be more fitting https://github.com/guysoft/FullPageOS/wiki/Chromium-configuration I hope you don't mind

@G3z excellent

Hello, first time posting on GitHub. I stumbled upon this as my company wanted to run a website with various marketing related images in our lobby and I was able to get it set up and work fine, however the scroll bars are definitely bugging me. I don't know what file to edit based on the above info. Nothing I see on the SD card matches. Can someone help with more detailed instructions?

@IXIcOrDLeSsIXI Hey and welcome to github. And FullPageOS repo in particular. The file is located on the raspberrypi on /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/00-rpi-vars . You will need basic Linux knowledge to edit that file from within the operating system on your Pi. I am not able to cover beyond that because its out of the scope of this repository.
