Workaround: right-click on the palette header instead. :)

Thanks, lol. Does it mean you're gonna close this? Maybe something in the future can be done.

No, I am not closing it. I said it merely as an FYI. Besides, I am not one of the bosses around here, lol.

@jessjwilliamson could you please make a quick specification for how this should be improved?

This scrollbar is just too wide - 8 pixels. Changing this to 6 pixels wide instead should solve the issue :)

Original UI designs we have are large (8 pixels) small (6 pixels) and score (with stroke outline). We have designs that use 6 pixel scrollbars but it looks like they're not being used in the app. I think we need to review our use of scrollbars throughout the whole app soon. I can see a lot of 8 pixel wide ones and the score one but barely any 6. Tagging @avvvvve as we had a similar conversation about this not too long ago.

Not sure that simply decreasing the width of the scrollbar to 6px solves the problem: image
