      Hi, While I'm viewing a big site
      I can't see the scroll bar straight away because it's too light
      Would be there a way to make it a bit darker..?

        I've looked into this as this has bothered me as well but there doesn't seem to be a way to change it unfortunately.

        My workaround is to use my middle mouse button to scroll up and down rapidly which makes the bar more noticeable.

          Yeah this seems to be a problem in Opera right now they should fix it. Or at least give us the option to change its colour

            Hi @thebluncik @operabestbrowser @dustsucker, if you want, then you can check the "Rescroller" extension, in which you can "style each scroll bar element and their properties, including the sizes and colors of shadows and borders" (by default the scroll buttons are disabled, but you can enable them back under Buttons > Show scroll buttons). To install it in the Opera, you need first install one of the following extensions: "Extension source viewer", or "Download Chrome Extension".

            As a really simple alternative to the above, you can try the "Win7 Scrollbars" extension, although it does not offer any options, it seems to fulfill its task, as the slider seems to be quite visible 😉

            Small notice: the extensions will not work on the internal pages of the Opera.
