Note that with this fix in place, the horizontal scroll bar can "blink" if the long line is only partially visible. IMHO, though possibly distracting to some people, I think it is much better than not having access to the scroll bar at all and that the "blinking" represents a separate issue. |

Thank you for this push! As I described in the issue, I was hoping to do a more proper fix, but never got there. In any case this fix is better than the current state. The fix will be in the first beta of 4.0 |

You are most welcome. It puzzled me to no end why, though everyone was complaining about it, and there was even a fix documented, it "never got there" and there wasn't even a pull request! I figured that, maybe everyone else was too busy, so I'd try. When do you expect the beta to come out? |
I'm hoping for the end of February |
|
Any chance you can send me a line so I can come and try it? |

@jharris1993, you could subscribe to the release notifications of this repo. Click on the "Watch" button on top of this page, select "Custom" and then check "Releases". |
|
That will include beta releases? Interesting! Done. . . . |
|
I always thought that this includes betas and https://github.community/t/feature-request-filter-pre-releases-from-notifications-watch-custom-releases/180052 seems to confirm my theory. |
