Selectively Disable Overlay Scrollbars

WladyX — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 12:37:33 +0000

Any application can be started without overlay scrollbars by changing the LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR environment variable to 0. When starting an application from the terminal, prepend the command with LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0. This example will start gedit with classic scrollbars:
LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 gedit

You can disable the scrollbars for your user:

Add the line
export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0
to the file ~/.xprofile (create one, if it doesn’t exist).
