Yes, I was using that type of code before too, but it didn't work with the new scrollbar styles (drawing artifacts on resize, not automatically hiding), which is what prompted me to look at subclassing the scroller itself instead. Unfortunately it still only works with the legacy style scrollers and not overlays as per my previous message.
