scroll buttons - where are they?

Post by Mach10 »

I need my window scroll buttons. I have dropped my mouse and the scroll wheel no longer works.
Clicking below or above the bar doesn't do page increment but goes to where you click.
Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon

How do I enable scroll buttons for all my windows?
Terminal, firefox..etc.

Scroll bars are on the right of the screen. If you have previously disabled these you can re-activate them in System Setting (in the main menu), Appearance, Effects and turn "Overlay scroll bars" to ON. Then log out and back in again.

Scroll buttons are disabled by default in most themes - see viewtopic.php?p=1571430#p1571430 for how to enable them.
For custom Nemo actions, useful scripts for the Cinnamon desktop, and Cinnamox themes visit my Github pages.
