[GNC] configuring scroll bars

Is your main window set to full screen?

If so, do the buttons appear properly when you take it off full screen?

A quick work around might be to size the window to fill the screen but not use the full-screen setting. Then you know where to look for a setting or report a bug to either GTK or Plasma.

Do your QT apps behave the same way?

Regards,
Adrien
