[GitHub] [netbeans] d01010101 opened a new issue, #5068: Scrollbar either normally sized or at window's edge
d01010101 opened a new issue, #5068:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/5068
### Description
Editor scrollbar without pixel hunting. Either of traditional width or at the window's edge (to the left of the overview column).
### Use case/motivation
Scrollbars are getting smaller. I guess that the primary reasons are certain multimedia aesthetics, documents whose size changes dynamically or are never very long (so that the mouse wheel works well), dynamic width-sensitive layouts or sometimes small space. Then, there is an important reason or current UI convention of putting the scrollbar at the very window's edge so that a maximized window allows a fast gesture to access to the scrollbar with the mouse, event if the scrollbar is thin.
No single of these reasons seems to be the case for Netbeans Editor. Yet, NB inherits the size and intensity decrease of scroll bars from the widget libraries. Many of these reasons are the case for a browser yet Chrome has a scrollbar twice as wide, twice as dark and actually at the window's edge.

Personally, I prefer it how it is, and wouldn't want to see it changed by default. But if you don't want to use another look and feel, then you can override the width easily enough.
Go to `Tools / Options / Appearance / FlatLaf`. Click `Edit custom properties`. This will open a text file, so just close the options window. Add
```properties
ScrollBar.width=20
```
Save the file. Restart NetBeans.
