Hello
Desktop: Xfce v: 4.18.1 tk: Gtk v: 3.24.36 info: xfce4-panel wm: xfwm v: 4.18.0 vt: 7

(bookworm)
Is there a way to bring the arrows in addition to the scrollbar into the GUI.
I would like to have them for GTK2, GTK3 and ev. GTK4
Would appreciate some answer.
Thank you.
Edit:
I have tried this in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css:
scrollbar {
-GtkScrollbar-has-backward-stepper: true;
-GtkScrollbar-has-forward-stepper: true;
}
scrollbar button {padding: 0}
But this makes not the full job.

Can you explain what you mean by "not the full job"? What is missing?
Also, steppers don't exist in GTK4 (see: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/gtk4-gtks … gone/14376).

Thank you for asking.
1) Thunar: If the scrollbar is on the extreme down position, the stepper is weak:

I would like, that it is still strong like the upper.
2) Thunar:
When I click on the arrow, I would like, that it moves one line like in GTK2 apps. But it only moves some pixels in thunar:

3) GTK2-Apps:
It does not show the arrows, but if I click, where the arrows should be it works as expected:

But I would like to see also arrows there.

I think this is default GTK3 behaviour when there is no more to scroll. You can override it by changing the last line of your snippet to:
scrollbar button {padding: 0; color: red;}
...and change "red" to whatever colour you would like.

I have a sense that this is just the way GTK3 changed things related to scrolling. I'm unable to find any information on how to disable or revert this functionality.

It's been soooo long since I've done any GTK2 tweaking. What gtk2 theme are you using and do you have any content in ~/.gtkrc-2.0?

Unfortunately, the Arc gtk-2.0 theme doesn't implement the steppers. Here is how the Chicago95 theme implements them. Notice that it uses the pixmap engine to specify the graphic elements for the function "STEPPER" - you'll need to re-create this functionality for the Arc theme.

Thank you!
I see it needs the folder Scrollbars with the pics and the file "scrollbar.rc".

But maybe I should just take another theme.
