overlay-scrollbars
It looks like Ubuntu 11.04 will come with overlay scrollbars by default. I do like them, but I don’t like the current mix of scrollbar types as many applications don’t yet use those overlay scrollbars.
Is there a way to disable overlay scrollbars ( without removing the overlay-scrollbar package)?
Accepted Answer
In 12.04 LTS there’s a slightly cleaner way to do it. Just run
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface ubuntu-overlay-scrollbars false
in a terminal. Apps opened afterwards will have the non-ayatana scrollbar.
To get the default behavior back, run
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface ubuntu-overlay-scrollbars
If you are using 12.10 or later , run
gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal
And to return to the default, run
gsettings reset com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode
