Text disappears behind vertical scroll bar

[marcosmolla]

Hi,

Using the Material Palenight 'Editor Theme' in combination with the Modern 'RStudio theme' I find that the text in the code editor is not wrapped at but behind the vertical scroll bar on the right. I am working on a book down project and have a lot of softwrapped text. That way, I am always missing some characters. When I switch to the Classic 'RStudio Theme' I don't have the problem (here the vertical scroll bar is absent).

Anything I can do about it?

I've got the same issue. I fix it each time I start up RStudio using the element inspector (right click the scroll bar and then hit inspect element in the dropdown) to turn the background setting of .rstudio-themes-flat *::-webkit-scrollbar-track to transparent.

This way the text will stil be behind the scroll bar itself when the scrollbar and text are lined up next to each other, but the text will no longer be permanently hidden behind the scrollbar track. It's a bit cumbersome, but these themes are just to good to not be used :)

If there is anyone with a proper fix, I'll be grateful.
