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?

Majority of my older clients that I representative seem to particular have a hard time with the scroll bar, whether it is too thin or the color is too close to the default background. If we have the ability to customize this option, that would be great

Yes please increase the width slightly. Would add efficiency and prevent mis clicks.

RE: power bi desktop scroll bars

This is a general problem with MS Windows apps per se.
It's seems very odd that no internal MS human factor expert or UAT testing has not addressed this before in several decades of commercial development and use.

In all apps with scroll bars, it always made sense to be able to either :
a) manually control
b) allow the system to automatically control
the minimum width and height.

Please then MS, could you provide this in the next MS Windows roll out for all apps ?

RE: power bi desktop scroll bars

I've searched the forum high and low to see if a change was implemented regarding controlling scroll bar size/thickness, and couldn't find anything to suggest it was... Puh-lease widen the scroll bar or give the developers the option to. They are way too thin... my report consumers have asked numerous time about this.

RE: power bi desktop scroll bars

Have you ever tried to click the scroll bar only to click an item in a list that filters all of the other tables? That's what happens to me frequently.
