Hi @nuno-agostinho — we don't hide the scrollbars by default, but the scrolling behaviour might be somewhat odd on OS X due to its "hide-scroll-bar-by-default-everywhere" policy. Is this what you are referring to here?

Hey @armish, that's not what I meant: I am talking about horizontal scrolling (which I think that your program doesn't support). Right now, to check upstream/downstream positions, I need to click and drag to the left/right. I'd think it'd be great if we could scroll instead.

argh, my bad — I didn't see that "horizontal" in the title. This was something we wanted to do in the past but other things had higher priority to them. The biggest issue with this scrolling feature is to tame the scrollbar and make it behave as smoothly as possible, which requires a little bit of a work.

Thanks for this feature request; we might not get to this soon, but let's keep this open for future reference.
