af 1ubayd, 3 år sidenGreetings! Nice addition, but this extension required access to open tabs in an update today. What for?

skrevet 3 år sidenGlad to hear that you like the add-on. I haven't had a chance to update the wiki page with information about why that new permission is required. I'm probably going to update that document later on today.
In short, this has to do with some adjustments that were made to make the add-on work properly for content that is embedded within other websites. Some older versions of Firefox will not share information about what websites are open unless they have that permission. Unfortunately, I can't apply the permission only to those versions of Firefox that need it, so I have to add that permission for every very of Firefox.
I plan on posting a more detailed explanation to the permissions page: https://github.com/WesleyBranton/Custom-Scrollbar/wiki/About-Permissions

Note: I'm using LibreWolf but I'm sure it'll be identical in FF.
In about:config, type in 'scrollbar' to get you to the right area, then try the following:
'widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.style' - this affects the scrollbar style, it goes from 0-4. '3' is thicker and rounded, '4' is thickest and squared off.
'widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.size.override' - affects the thickness in 3 and 4 above. Anywhere between 10-20 gives you nice thick bars.
I had a play around with all the 'scrollbar' settings and those seem to be the ones for a decent sized bar. How about having a play around yourselves in future, before giving Dev a hard time for creating a brill add-on xxSvar fra udvikleren
skrevet 3 måneder sidenIt continues to disappoint me that Firefox doesn't allow the add-on full control over the scrollbars. I've been trying to think of a good way to include steps for these settings in the add-on for some time now, since wider scrollbars are definitely a highly requested feature. - Bedømt til 1 ud af 5af netcat, 3 måneder sidenThe most important setting is missing for visually impaired persons: Thick and 'Very thick' scrollbars.
Only usability and accessibility count in working environments, especially for impaired users.
Currently Mozilla does NOT restrict addon access to Firefox settings, as this addon proves:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/toggle-resist-fingerprinting
Thus "Custom Scrollbars" should be able to offer much more options.
BUT: You can configure thick scrollbars manually in Firefox, as this tutorial shows. It works perfectly. Just translate the tutorial to your language.

skrevet 3 måneder sidenThe problem has never been with Firefox restricting access to settings. The problem is that Firefox has implemented scrollbars using the W3C standard, which doesn't support a wide scrollbar. This means that the browser simply does not support any width other than default, thin, and none. You can see the specification here: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-scrollbars/#scrollbar-width
You can, as you pointed out, change the scrollbar width globally across Firefox using some modifications to about:config. The challenge with this is that the user needs to do it manually since the add-on cannot change any settings in about:config. Long ago, add-ons used to be able change settings there, but when Firefox converted everything to use webextension technology that ability was removed and will not come back: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/webextension-read-write-access-to-about-config/12268
The Toggle Resist Fingerprinting add-on that you referenced does have access to a very limited set of privacy-related settings, but only because Firefox has chosen to make those settings available to add-ons: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/privacy - Bedømt til 4 ud af 5af Briadd-on, 4 måneder sidenWorks as intended, haven't had any issues with it. I've been using it since November 2022.

skrevet 4 måneder sidenUnfortunately, this is a limitation of Firefox. It does not allow the extension to fully customize the width. I've requested this feature many times, but they refuse to add it. If they ever do, I would be happy to add it to the extension. - Bedømt til 5 ud af 5af Firefox-bruger 13608665, 4 måneder siden

- Bedømt til 5 ud af 5af Andre Bell, 5 måneder sidenHave missed the ability to set my own scrollbar colors. I have issues detecting contrast and certain colors. This makes seeing the scrollbar way easier. So far is working on every site I visit. Easy five stars.
