title: "Changes To The Scrollbar"
date: 2014-02-22 00:00:00
excerpt: Packing more information into the right scrollbar.
---
I've made some changes to the scrollbar that is shown on the right side of the
display based on some feedback from users. The scroll area now has a single
vertical line extending from the top to the bottom. Previously, this area would
show log message characters and it wasn't very clear that the scroll bar
existed. The line is colored based whether there are errors or warnings in that
part of the log. The coloring should make it easier to see the distribution of
errors across the whole log. Similarly, there are notches added to the left and
right side of the line to show search hits and bookmarks, respectively. See the
following screenshot to get an idea of what it looks like:

These changes are currently only in the latest code from git. I'll be playing
with things a bit more before making a release.
