Scrollbars in Document view

[dgrigo]

Can someone explain the point of the scrollbars or how to turn them off ?

If we can hold middle mouse button and do the same thing faster than scrollbars, they are there sitting eating canvas valuable space.

And please add a full screen covering the windows taskbar, it sits there popping in and out with autohide, if you use a pen and go relaxing your hand on the bottom of the screen, and again eating valuable space, for god shake even Gimp has both those function, not to mention photoshop etc.

 

THANK YOU

macOS users can:

• Hide scroll bars with System Settings > Appearance > Show Scroll bars set to "When scrolling"
• Enter full screen mode with Window > Toggle Full Screen

I don't know if Affinity supports the equivalent features in Windows but you could try these standard features:

• Hide scroll bars with Windows Settings > Ease of Access > Display > Automatically hide scroll bars in Windows to "On"
• Enter full screen mode with F11

The shortcut to enter or exit full screen mode in Windows 11 is the F11 key that works with programs that follow microsoft guideline.

Unfortunetely affinity dont follow that rule for any of its programs.

that setting not even exists "the Windows Settings > Ease of Access > Display > Automatically hide scroll bars in Windows to "On""

The answer dont explain the scrollbars usefulness btw.

So nothing works on windows, noted
