Intellij editor vertical scrollbar disappearing

Answered

I have a problem with the vertical scrollbars within the editor view.

As I resize the window the scrollbar's transparency increases. The larger the window gets, the more transparent the scrollbar becomes. When I shrink the window's size, the scrollbar comes back.
 
I made a video that demonstrates this behavior:

I am using IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2018.2.5 on Ubuntu 18.04.1.

We have several related requests:

UI theme colors including the scrollbars will be customizable at some point (most likely, in 2018.3 or in 2019.1) and this problem should become obsolete soon.

Hello

Unless I missed it the scrollbar is still not customizable in 2019.1, is it still on the table ?

I have the same kind of issue with it. Being able to change the width of the editor scrollbar would be wonderful.

Hello,

Yes, you can customise scrollbars using themes: http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/reference_guide/ui_themes/themes.html

To customise editor scrollbars: http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/reference_guide/ui_themes/themes_extras.html#customizing-editor-scroll-bar-colors

Unfortunately, scrollbar width is not customisable at the moment.
