Reviews & Comments of Rescroller chrome extension

Well, blacklist doesn't work. Which kinda sucks, because i kinda like the scroll bar on some websites... I made a scroll bar which is pretty cool. (I use this on SpotOn - Github) ::-webkit-scrollbar { width: 5px; height: 1px; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-button { width: 0px; height: 0px; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb { background: linear-gradient(230deg, #ff000036, #ff800036, #ffff0036, #80ff0036, #00ff0036, #00ff8036, #00ffff36, #0080ff36, #0000ff36, #8000ff36, #ff008036); -webkit-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -z-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -o-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; animation: rainbow 10s ease infinite;, border-radius:50px; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:hover { background: linear-gradient(230deg, #ff00007a, #ff80007a, #ffff007a, #80ff007a, #00ff007a, #00ff807a, #00ffff7a, #0080ff7a, #0000ff7a, #8000ff7a, #ff00807a); -webkit-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -z-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -o-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; animation: rainbow 1s ease infinite; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:active { background: linear-gradient(230deg, #ff0000, #ff8000, #ffff00, #80ff00, #00ff00, #00ff80, #00ffff, #0080ff, #0000ff, #8000ff, #ff0080); -webkit-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -z-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; -o-animation: rainbow 10s linear infinite; animation: rainbow 1s ease infinite; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track { background: #056f572e; border: 0px none #ffffff; border-radius: 50px; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track:hover { background: #ffc0cb; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track:active { background: #ffc0cb;

AWESOME extension! Works perfectly, and offers LOTS of fun options. ?? EDIT - Spoke too soon. Blacklisting doesn't work. Had to uninstall.

All I want is to have consistent, standard size scrollbars that look as much like the OS default as possible, but that seems impossible. I tried this extension to counter those idiot web developers (or idiot managers of developers) that customize scroll bars, making them 2 pixels wide, impossible to see and use on a 24 inch, 1920x1080 display. However, the button feature on this extension doesn't work, and that is a deal-breaker. After you choose all of the up/down/left/right images, they are all screwed up; up displays as left, etc. Attempting to change the incorrect image messes with the other three.

Good extension only downside is it needs more than a color picker. can't make silver or gold with it. so it could use some color options like that to go with the custo color picker.

cool

excellent makes the scroll bar wide, very helpful with the gmail with the panels , can see better

I love this extension! I love to have the ability to customize my scrollbar by changing the color, making it bigger, or removing it completely. I am using this extension to essentially remove the scrollbar because the horizontal bar on the bottom of YouTube was bothering me by getting in the way of my videos, even when fullscreening. With this extension that problem no longer exists.

Works great, but I wish it used the Chrome sync API.

So good i used on opera gx and its amazing

Very easy to use with lots of features.

good but needs to be updated

use it to remove bar with this ::-webkit-scrollbar { display: none; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-button { } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track { } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece { } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb { } ::-webkit-scrollbar-corner { } ::-webkit-resizer { }

This is an awesome extension! However, I had to reset Chrome settings. Then I enabled Rescroller again. My custom settings are still there but they are no longer being applied. Can you help? Thanks!

I just discovered this extension, and it's fantastic, provided it doesn't cause any issues I don't know about yet. If only something like this could change the default windows 10 scrollbars too.

Thanks so much! Now I can finally see my scroll bars while working outside in bright light. You guys rock!

Love it!

Finally a solution that seems to work as described.. But.. Why no white-list? It only has black-list functionality.. My use-case requires white-list functionality, so unfortunately, I can't use it for anything.. The unbelievably long search continues...

Amazing!!! Best extension to hide (1 px) the scrollbars. :)

Works at random, not on all sites! What is the purpose of it!!!

awesome

Terrific extension, very easy to use and so far, have not had any problems !!!!

although i heard and read good things about this extension, there no reason to bother using it as it was last updated 4 years ago, August 7, 2016....strange that the developer totally abandoned an app/extension with over 40,000 downloads...

works but sometimes it is crashing whole chrome

I have tested over 20 scroll bar extensions so far and THIS ONE IS THE BEST! You can edit everything! you can even put scroll buttons and change everything about them as well! 10/10 scroll bar extension!

i just did so i will see how it work

Invaluable tool for some websites that make the scrollbar too small to be dragged (the mouse just wants to resize the window). Only complaint I have is the default settings kinda suck - scrollbar is too small and inverted colors are weird.

Good, but can i make transparent with this extension?

This works great. Keeps the stroller close and bright for use. Just saw that the developer has not updated in almost 4 years. Too bad. Would it take him that much time to update! He has almost 40,000 people enjoying his craft. So I'm taking 2 stars off. He doesn't care anyhow! Heh Google Chrome folks does this makes the extension vulnerable? Maybe someone can take it over and monetize it.

Thanks to this extension Chrome is usable again!!! No more hunting for the invisible skinny scrollbar. This is a must-have for smaller chromebooks without a mouse!!

This solves most of my problems with visibility of default Chromium's scrollbar. Works fine combined with the Dark Mode extension. The only feature I'm missing is the ability to pick colors from the screen instead of clicking in the palette.

You need this, because the weirdos at google decided to make the scroll bar unusable

Corrected my tiny scroll bars. Thanks guys, great product

Nice options. Excelent extension.

So easy to use and such a help. No more fighting to align the cursor with the sliver of a scroll bar. Too bad it doesnt work on the Chrome website. ;D

the Chrome default scrollbar is so annoying when in a small text box (e.g. Jira noformat boxes). Gives back some screen real estate. Thank you for the extension.

BEST SCROLLBAR CUSTOMIZER EXTENSION I'VE FOUND ON CHROME STORE THUS FAR! FANTASTIC!

Very simple and it works.

The extension is almost perfect as it has almost every customisation features you need. I would only add the ability to autohide the scroll bar and set the background to be transparent.

A nearly perfect extension for customizing the scroll-bar. The only reason I don't rate it as 5-Stars is that I wish the extension can go a little bit further in customizing, say giving an option to hide the scrollbar via the extension button, or to hide the scroll-bar when the screen has not moved for a certain amount of time.

Best available. Very flexible with customizing, WYSIWYG.

thanks! great saver for pen tablet users

Simple, easy to use, and does exactly what I want it to.

Locked up computer. Junk!

I love this extension, it works so well. I love the level of customization. I use this extension to customize my scrollbars like how Windows 7 looks; I came over from Windows to Chrome OS, but I missed the look of Windows.

It doesn't work with the amazon turk website when I look at the actual survey page. It deletes the scrollbar and I need to see it and use it. I tried to add the website address to the Blacklist but that didn't work.

this is a perfect scrollbar extension, the only problem is that you can see the scrollbar while watching youtube on fullscreen.

It is awesome but in YouTube the scrollbar changes. Can you fix that please?

It is very slow on big or "intricate" pages. For example https://angular.io/guide/template-syntax

So happy! I have battled to find a way to do this for a couple of years now. My 55 year old eyes could barely find the bar in huge google sheets. You have saved me a many tired eye headaches. Thank you

This worked brilliantly for a couple of years, until youtube introduced scrolling down when in full screen. Youtube now lets you scroll down to see comments, even when it full screen, but unfortunately the scroll bar still appears in full screen. Just for youtube, not any other site. I disabled this extension and youtube is fine now. Maybe an update can fix this? But without this new issue, this extension was great. I hate chrome's default bright scrollbar, and this extension fixed that problem with it's vast array of customisation options.

Easy to set up and works really well; no more struggling to distinguish between the default shades of grey.

a very simple & straightforward thing to use. The default scrollbars of gray in Win7 are so hard to see-- no longer a problem with my choice of red

How do I move the scrollbar to the left side?

I like the Rescroller although I find that it won't work on all sites, which is strange. I use it on my Chromebook and at least I can see their scroll bar and that's a step in the right direction.

Nice program. In the past 1-2 weeks I had to keep the program options open in Opera for it to work, but that is not the case NOW..?

Fast, easy to add. Now i have a scroll bar I can actually use!

Does everything I needed. Found no problems

This is simply amazing, i'm really happy i founds this. It's easy to use and has the customization options you would expect.

I love this! With the new update in August 2017, the chromebook scroll bar just disappeared. This extension is very simple and even allows you to change the size of the scrollbar. I would give this 6 starts if I could!

Miraculous. Doesn't work everywhere, but sure a savior for those with no touchscreen after the scrollbars disappeared. Thank you!

ive been looking for something like this.

Whew! At age 74 this is a true godsend for my old yes!

Doesn't work on Youtube.com when the Magic Actions for Youtube extension is enabled. The scrollbar goes back to skinny awfulness. If you could get it to work with the Magic Actions for Youtube Extension that would be great.

Works perfectly! The customization is quite impressive. You can pretty much make your scrollbar look like anything you want.

You can't see it, you see it.

Great app. Easy to set up.

This program is the savior of Chrome. Praise be to Rescroller.

YAY!!!!

There should be an option to change the width of it when you hover on the scroll bar.

My Dad is 64 years old and struggles with PCs and seeing things on the screen. This app gave him a much needed thicker scroll bar. Great accessibility tool - thank you so much for making this!

For some reason Chromebook thought it would be a good idea to hide the scrollbar. Thank heavens for this add on.

Best Chrome scrollbar imo

EDIT: Seems a browser restart fixed my issue with the blacklist. Still would appreciate a whitelist though. Love this. I wish it had an option to use a whitelist instead or alongside the blacklist though. As it stands now, the blacklist does not work at all for me.

exactly what i was looking for and more.my eyes suck. the default light gray and darker gray made it hard for me to see where i was on a web page. i read a lot and sometimes i like to see how much is left in an article, chapter, etc. i changed the color to black back and blue bar, and that is just what i was looking for. what makes it more is i can adjust the size of the bar to make it even easier to see.

Makes for nice scrollbars. Doesn't do what I was looking for, however -- it doesn't stop scrollbar hijacking by websites.

Excellent extension. Being colorblind, it was difficult to see the default scrollbar depending on the color schemes of some websites.. (and this was one of the main reasons I stayed with Firefox as my default browser) this corrects most of those issues. I do see some sites that it doesn't work on (chrome store is one of them)

Nice and easy to use. My only problem is that the handle displays on top of the yellow lines when using the Find feature (CTRL+F). Maybe you could fix that by using RGBA instead of HEX colors, and allowing the opacity to be adjusted as well.

Love this extension. Great for those, like me, who like personalizing their experience with skins, pointers etc. A keeper for sure. You'll love it !!

I saw a custom scrollbar on a site I visited and after that I found this awesome extension. Thank you so much for making this!

To do: - force rescroller behavior OVER any scrolljacking, I.E. not letting the webpage scrolljack, ffs. - add speed, scroll rate and acceleration behavior

Love it

scroll bar disappeared from youtube and few other websites.

Works perfectly.

Great for improving accessibility! You can make the scroll bar wider and bolder (e.g., high contrast), so it's much easier to see and click with a mouse. It's great for everyone else too! The customisation options are simple, with advanced settings available too. One of my favourite extensions.

20160813 Works like a charm. Loved it. Kudos to David. I hope it will be maintained and improved. Cheers

The customization it offers is outstanding but what good is this if it doesn't reliably work on 60% of the websites I visit? Half of the time the scrollbars are not skinned and I have to force refresh using Ctrl+F5 to skin them (I am on Chrome 52 beta).

10/10 Extension! Now I can have a thin and dark-style scrollbar.

Perfect, just what I needed. Adds real class to Goggle's eye candy! Nice job and kudos to the author. PS. NO re sizing flicker in the current version!

Thank goodness!

Perfect, that's exactly what I was looking for. Original Chrome one was awesome, you couldn't see it at all.

This is noted as a FUN extension. WRONG!! As a disabled person I can only say... BEST computer aid I have ever come across, I am so grateful that I couldn't care if it took up half my hard drive as it has really made a huge and dramatic difference for me!!! Thank You David Watkins You can marry my sister if you want to. You have my blessings, both for my sister and your talent in providing a large footprint on this Earth for helping the disabled. AND, it really is FUN after all!! Rev CWS

Spazzes a bit when reloading pages.

I have used this extension for a couple years now. I started using it because Google Chrome used to have terrible scroll bars that were difficult to see. (That may still be the case. I haven't checked). Unfortunately, as others have noticed, this extension can cause issues when logging into certain secure websites. I'm not sure if the developers have tried to fix this or not but it has been a problem since I started using the extenion and it continues to be a problem even now. In fact, I've noticed about 10-15 sites where this extension causes issues, effectively making the sites unusable. These are mostly banks and other financial sites, but I've also had problems on other types of websites, including my employer's human resources webpage. One way to get around this is to simply disable the Rescroller extension on specific sites using another extension called "Extension Automation". That works pretty, well but it is still annoying to have to do. Perhaps it is not possible to fix this problem because of something about how Rescroller is implemented, but at the very least the developers should *WARN* users about it. I've lost many hours over the past two years emailing banks and other sites to tell them their websites didn't work with Chrome, only to find out after lengthy troubleshooting that it was really *Rescroller* that was at fault. This recently happened again with my employer's website, prompting this Review. To the developers: Please Please Please find a way to make it MORE OBVIOUS to users that Rescroller can AND DOES interfere with login to many sites and can also cause strange effects (such as making page content appear incorrectly, or an an incorrect location, or not at all, or any of a number of odd issues). ALSO, please make a *one-click* method to DISABLE Rescroller for specific hosts. Thanks!

VERY GOOD PLUGIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH GOD BLESS YOU

My scroll bar! How I missed you so. Thank you Rescroller!

Everything was good but it causes some sites to not be able to login.

best scrolllg tweak out there. Thanks.

its pretty good, but gets boring :/

LOVE this!! It adds personality to a dull scroll bar :) Only issue is for some reason it keeps removing itself... though may be my computer.

It works well but causes conflicts with many secure sites. I can no longer log into banking and other sites. Reading the other comments, I see that it's a common problem. Hope it's not a security issue. Is the app grabbing my personal data? Maybe that's why banks are blocking it. I've disabled and deleted it.
