Scrolling and window control in LL 3.0

[paul1149]

Hi,

I'm enjoying the new release. Naturally there are a few wrinkles I'd like to see sorted.

I'm having problems with scrolling in LibreOffice. I'm currently using ThinIce, but every theme I've tried presents no scroll bar steppers. That wouldn't be too bad, but the scrollbar itself doesn't function correctly. When clicking on it, the shuttle, instead of progressing by one page, jumps to the point of the click. This makes where you click the scrollbar critical, and on long documents this is not workable. I've been reduced to using the PgDwn or Ctrl-Down keys.

I've tried to modify the ThinIce gtk-2.0 file, which I did successfully in LL 2.8, to no avail.

One other problem I'm having is that a lot of windows have no handles on their bottom edges for resizing. I have to position the window at the bottom of the screen and then use the handle at the top-right to expand upward.

Be well.

Synaptic's search results the scrollbar thing happens with also.
I've seen it in a couple of other programs too but can't think of what they are at the moment.
Changing themes doesn't seem to make any difference.
Maybe it's how the program itself is written?

I just tested the same version of Libreoffice, 5.1.3.2, on a windows machine. The scrollbars there work as they should.

Another problem is the Ctrl-Left/Right function in LO. It should take you to the beginning of the next or previous word, but instead it goes to the far end of the word depending on which direction you're moving. This makes editing more complicated. This problem was in 2.8 as well, and also does not exist on Windows.
