Questions tagged [scrollbars]

A scroll bar is a part of a graphical user interface element to present the user with a perspective of a percentage of the page shown. The scroll bar consists mainly of three parts: the track, thumb and buttons (or arrows). A user can click and drag the thumb in order to reveal more contents of the page. In the event that a user uses a scrolling function, the thumb tracks the page progress.
