Hi there, i've got my x51v looking pretty sweet thanks for the vista skins found on aximsite, I was wondering if there was anyway of skinning the scrollbar as its the only annoying think that retains the old look of windows mobile? I have read somewhere that it cant be change as it is hardcoded into the software? is this true? has anyone got any work arounds?

Thanks.

sktool can make the width smaller (or height if you prefer).

ah k will have a look, so there no way to change the colour at least to dark grey rather than the baby blue it is at the moment??

There are themes that can change the color (like the ones that you apply to the whole device). Also, there's a registry tweak even if you don't have SKTools that I used to make them smaller. I can't remember what it is at the moment, though.

I believe the scroll bar color is determined by the underlying theme - mine is pink because I choose Guava Bubbles as a theme, then put my custom today screen on top of it.

The program UI Tweaker (free, I think) has 4 components, 1 of which is SysColor Changer, and the first item listed for color change is "Scroll Bar Color."

Ah, I see, thanks everyone for the prompt replies. I will try both UI tweaker and SKtools to reduce the size of the scroll bars a little :) Does anyone have any recommendations on size? I dont want to make it too tiny :)

EDIT: I tried UI Tweak, changed the color and asked to soft reset, the scrollbar on my totayscreen is still blue :( . I dont know if it due to me using wisbar advance and ilauncher. Will try to change setting with SKtools and report back.
