Original report text

Context : With any stylesheet (not with "no-stylesheet" theme)

Use-case : The properties of the data can be edited (such as length with up and down arrows, pocket type with a drop down menu by clicking on the down arrow, etc.).

Problem: The scroll bar overlaps those arrows, and when clicking on them, the scroll bar has priority and instead of modifying the properties, it just make the data window scroll.

See attached video

Proposed solution: The editing arrows shouldn't overlap with the scroll bar, or the scroll bar should disappear after 1/2second as in the "no-stylesheet" theme

Additional information

FreeCAD forum topic

Steps to reproduce

On FC 0.20 (git)

• Select a stylesheet (Behave Dark, all the Dark-, Darker-, Light-* or proDark)
• Open a file, apply anything to a model (pocket, pad, etc.)
• In properties tab, clic on the drop-down arrows or up/down arrow at the right of the property you want to edit
• Instead of clicking those arrows, scroll bar takes precedence and move the view (see attached video)

I can't reproduce this on Windows, so this may be a Mac-only Qt bug.

On the forum, user Syres couldn't reproduce on Windows either:

[quote=Syres]On Windows as soon as the user squashes the Property panel to cause the scroll bar to appear the up/down arrows and combo box drop down arrow all shift to the left so they don't overlap (as would be expected), tested with Behave Dark stylesheet using:

Maybe fixed in recent Qt versions?

I bumped the forum thread

Per dxp.dev in the forum thread
This is an upstream macOS issue. The workaround:

MacOS System Preferences ➡️ General ➡️ Show scroll bars
set to Always
