Scrollbar Issue with IE9

Tuesday, October 25, 2011 by Xiandi | Discussion: Skinning

 I skinned the regular scrollbars and they tile quite well. However, when I open IE9, they are stretching.

So I was thinking that this might be where the Web Scrollbars come in (never had the need to skin them before). I skinned those with a smooth texture, no lines and applied it. Nothing changed. Am I doing something wrong or is SKS not applying the web scrollbars at all? Anyone have a clue?

I noticed that too in IE9 Cyndie, but I imagine it has something to do with IE9 and not WB/SKS.

The only time I open it is to check how my skin looks on it....then close it right away. I hate the way IE9 looks.

IE9 paints its own scrollbars and has no tile support and while we reported it to Microsoft they were not interested in fixing their implementation error.

Because of this we added the web section scrollbars, but it may be the final version of IE changed how it worked as they were added long before the IE9 final version was released.

So basically, the way I'm seeing things, the web scrollbars do not work at all, because I made some and they didn't apply. Is there some code I can enter to make it work, or are you planning on a fix for this in the next release? ...or is this not fixable at all?
