Thunderbird 47 - How come the scrollbar "slider" doesn't show ?
I'm running SUSE Tumbleweed and using the Thunderbird beta channel. Got notification that a Thunderbird update was available. Went ahead with its install. Now the vertical scrollbars in Thunderbird's windows no longer show the "slider" that represents the visible portion of the content of a long window.
I can still move vertically the content of a long window by *dragging* (or "clicking") with my cursor inside the vertical scrollbar -- it's just that I don't see the visual_object that I could drag -- the entire scrollbar (top to bottom) is one single color.
Is there some simple control that I can adjust to get the scrollbar "slider" to be again visible ?

Try toggling the hardware acceleration option in preferences > advanced > general.
IT is problematical and depending on friver revisions is sometimes better on and sometimes better off. A real PITA really that the Firefox developers have been doing battle with for over a year.
Other than that, try safe mode Help menu > restart with add-ons disabled.
Sill no good, file a bug. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org Beta software should be getting close, but manual Linux testing is mostly done on Mint I think.
Thank you, Matt, for replying.
Toggling the hardware acceleration made no difference.
Trying safe mode made no difference.
