Windows 7 sp1 x64, Atom 0.156.0

I can scroll with mouse wheel, but cannot click on the vertical scroll slider and mouse-drag to scroll. I can do this with the horizontal scroll.

Related to #2751 ?

.. of course now it works.

Not sure what I did to make it intermittent.

I encountered this problem with version 0.157 on Fedora Linux.

Which scrollbar? On the editor? The tree view?

The editor right vertical scrollbar

(I have subsequently upgraded to 0.157.0, but with same issue)

editorscroll

I have more details on one way to reproduce this

  • I opened a file that shows the vertical scrollbar
    • can mouse click-and-hold to move the vertical scrollbar in the editor
  • Attempt to load a large log file
    • In my case it was a 5mb, 45K line log file
    • Atom silently fails to open the file
  • Return to the first file
  • Cannot mouse click-and-hold to move the vertical scrollbar in the editor
    • Mouse wheel, page-up, page-down still work as expected.

I seem to be having the same problem (though it's been consistent not intermittent.)
I'm on Ubuntu 14.04, using atom 0.154.0 It seemed to start after upgrading from 0.152.0

It's only the rightmost vertical scroll bar. If I open up panes, the I can use the vertical scroll bars in the interior of the window, just not the rightmost one.

Im having the same issue intermittently. I can not "grab" right most scroll bar, on Ubuntu 14.04, atom 0.158...This problem seems to be triggered (for me atleast) when I tried to open a .json file over 2mb. I then got the, "can not open files of > 2mb" error message. I then closed it, and was not able to use the right-hand vertical scroll bar. At the moment, the only thing that fixes this is to restart atom.

Encountering the same issue in atom 0.161.0 on osx 10.10.1 the rightmost vertical scroll bar refuses to react to clicks and thus cannot be scrolled. Other scroll bars act normally. File size does not seem to matter in my case.

Scrolling can still be achieved via mouse wheel and other scrolling methods.

Since this happens only on the right side, it might be the <atom-notifications> element? It should be "click through" with disabled pointer events, but that might not work everywhere.

If you open DevTools Menu > View > Developer > Toggle Developer Tools, could you add display: none; and see if that fixes it?

@simurai Following what I did in #4563 (comment) and what you recommended in #4563 (comment) , if I add the attribute style="display: none" to the <atom-notifications> node, I can grab the scrollbar. Removing it makes it so I can no longer grab the scrollbar.

scrolldisplaynone

I don't know enough about Atom to know what that means though

@jimgraham Thanks, that already helped a lot. For some reason pointer-events: none; was missing. Might got lost in a merge conflict.. Anyways, should be fixed in the next update.
