Scroll bars in version 5

Do you think that that will fix the problem with the scrolling bars in version 5. You can get used to it but explaining thta to the new user is sometimes difficult. What do you think? And why is this problem happening?

I think a presentation is not enough to decide whether this scrollbars suck or not. Do you have some more info than what's available inthe presentation here in the downloads?

Yes I believe the scrolling bar issue works differently in the new client so it works better. I don't know if it's fixed in old client.

Does it mean that there is a scrolling bar issue in the current client as well? What is it? Is it only in SP2? Because SP1 is that last I used and I had no such issue. What is it all about?

As far as I understand it 3.7 had problems with the scroll bar but 4.0 doesn't... then again it could be I just got used to it 8-[

I think the issue with scroll bars that some of you are trying to figure out is the unreliable way the scroll bars function in some windows in NAV.

Usually for really long lists, the relative height of the bar in the scroll doesn't correspond to the ratio of records-total:records-displayed, and as a result makes some navigation issues for users who rely on the technology in the way Windows supports it in pretty much any other application. Also, the scrollbar will sometimes become disabled in certain situations (even though the record-total exceeds the records-displayed), requiring the user to scroll or page down (with the keyboard controls) first to re-enable the scroll bar.

But for myself, having played in the v2.x world, ANY scroll bar is far better than what we had before! *big grin*
