Hi,

I created that patch, so let me also share my opinion.

The scrollbar is something which height/width depends on the OS and visual theme used. So there are issues where the scrollbar is too small and the widgets are displayed wrongly [1].

Of course there is a use case for the Navigation buttons being quickly accessible, but I don't think the right place for them is below the scrollbar. There is for example already a toolbar which has the navigation buttons (forward and back, see View->Toolbars->Navigation) and we could easily add the "Navigation" button there also. Or we could think about adding it to the statusbar (I would prefer the first).

Thanks
Samuel

Hi guys,

there is a patch to remove the navigator from the scrollbar:

  https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/6045/

Could you guys form a good consensus on if that should be done in the first
place or not, as that patch is block on that right now. Needs to be clarified
best before 4.2 branchoff.

Best,

Bjoern
