Hi,

Another way to look into this: by having such settings in Appearance, we
force all
BControlLook implementations to support the feature. Let's say I
implement a Wondows 95
control look. Now I have to support dots and lines in the scrollbar
knob, too.
So, I would rather support switching to a different control look, which
could itself come
with an app to customize it. And have only the minimal amount of
configuration in Appearance:
font size, dark/light look, and one or two highlight colors to derive
everything from.
The scroll bar knobs add a lot and are a commonly requested user feature. I
know it was rejected before but I thought I'd try again using our new
Democratic process. Alas once again my patch has been rejected. The only
other control look we will support will be the Be one which will also
implement knob styles. There will never be a Win95 ControlLook for Haiku.
Personally I find the knobs too sparse by default, and this was a feature
of BeOS. Minimal Appearance prefs be damned.
