react-custom-scrollbars: Styling the thumb not working
Using v4.0.0; React v15.1.0; Redux v3.5.2
So I’ve been trying to add my own styling to the thumb and track but I can’t seem to get it to work. I figured out that you need to add the complete styling (I did see this is fixed in 4.0.1) but when I try to set a different color to the thumb it doesn’t style the actual thumb but just places a ‘new’ static thumb in that color and the actual thumb that is moving isn’t colored, what am I doing wrong?

![]() |
Also the autoHide={false} doesn’t work and it still hides when I’m not scrolling.
< Scrollbars
autoHide={false}
autoHeight={true}
autoHeightMin={this.scrollBarHeight()}
autoHeightMax={this.scrollBarHeight()}
renderThumbVertical={props => < div {...props} className="thumb-vertical"/>}
renderTrackVertical={props => < div {...props} className="track-vertical"/>}>
// content
< /Scrollbars >
.thumb-vertical {
position: relative;
display: block;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
cursor: pointer;
border-radius: inherit;
background-color: #d9534f;
}
.track-vertical {
position: absolute;
width: 6px;
display: block!important;
right: 2px;
bottom: 2px;
top: 2px;
border-radius: 3px;
}

@mruano29 that might be a work around but you can’t really ask people to do that when using your app :p
I had the same issue using OSX, configure “use the scrollbars: always” on system preferences => general. It worked for me.
Ok, your style has to include
height: 100%; top: 0; right: 0;@hackhat I owe you a beer. Here’s how the renderTrack method should look like:
