    Please change the power bi desktop scrollbars on the report canvas.

    These things are so small and difficult to click on.

    Is it possible to add a handle?

    Agree, impossible to scroll.

    The thin scroll bar experience is very frustrating.
    If PowerBI Dev team insist to keep a narrow scroll bar, at least make it such that when the cursor move past the scroll, the scroll width will increase automatically momentarily. So that it is easier to click on.

    THis drives me mad. The Fields scrollbar is too narrow and it's the same colour as the background. I keep accidentally dragging objects and creating hierarchies

    The main scrollbar for the filter panel is so narrow, that my users would never be able to use it. I can barely make it scroll with a great deal of effort.

    The app is barely usable with the extremely narrow scroll bar in the fields plane.

    It's nearly 2020, guys. Let's figure this out.

    Disappointing that this was first mentioned in April of 2017 and it's still no better (if not worse).

    RE: power bi desktop scroll bars

    Is my imagination or did this get even worse with the latest release? And now with the new "whitewashed" desk top look it is even harder to see that thin little scroll bar.
