Introducing Overlay Scrollbars in Unity

• spaznode 16y ago
  "One of the contexts we used to validate our solution was scrollable panes rich applications like Eclipse" ..maybe that's only funny to me.

  I love the slimmer scrollbars. Unfortunately, it also makes apparent the massive amount of wasted space in the Back/Forward toolbar.

  I love this. In fact, i think it would be even more awesome if we can have something similar to Wave's scrolling style in normal desktop application.

  In their quest to copy Apple, of course this feature is only implemented after it appears in OS X Lion. It's as if the developers lack self-confidence or imagination, or both.

    Lion wasn't the first, and Unity will beat Lion to market, so that's something.

    The timing is unfortunate, but I doubt they designed and implemented this in a few days.

    Right, because Apple never borrowed any UI features from anyone else, and came up with everything independently. http://www.opera.com/browser/tips/?feature=speeddial http://www.opera.com/browser/tips/?feature=speeddial http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_desktop http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_desktop http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabbed_document_interface#History http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabbed_document_interface#Histo... http://toastytech.com/guis/alto3.html http://toastytech.com/guis/alto3.html

  Is anyone else bothered by the jerkiness of the rendering? The scollbar seems to jump slightly as the presenter is demonstrating it. Comparing the scrollbars on my mac, they move smoothy. Jerkiness is something I notice a lot when using linux and windows and to a minor degree some OSX programs. Is this a hard problem to solve?
