Description questions2000 2025-11-23 23:03:31 UTC
Description:
In the spreadsheet tab bar context menu there is an item called "Tab Color..."
This opens color picker dialog.
If you move cursor to right side of the color grid you will notice that vertical scrollbar appears.
This vertical scrollbar extends above and below the color grid at top and bottom, going into the "default" horizontal bars.
I think this scrollbar should stop at the top and bottom of the color grid itself.
Can see the "Font Color" & "Background Color" color pickers accessed in toolbar drop downs for reference.
These two color pickers vertical scrollbars stop at the top and bottom of color grid.

Actual Results:
The vertical scroll bar appears and covers most of the last row of color grid.

Expected Results:
Make vertical scroll bar always visible on the right side of the color grid.
Same approach used "Font Color" & "Background Color" color pickers accessed in toolbar drop downs.


Reproducible: Always

Ok, so the point is the vertical scroll distance includes the Default button at the top and the colour label at the bottom. Not sure how easy this would be to fix - can a margin/padding be added to the element?

Seen in all UIs. In the gen UI, we see the traditional scrolling buttons, which gtk3 and Qt have done away with.
