There are two ways to change the width or height of a scroll bar with GTK: Either by choosing an appropriate theme or by setting the slider-width in a configuration file. You can't change the size individually from within Emacs and IMO we should prevent users from trying to do so. What happens currently is that Emacs internally uses the height you specified and GTK continues to draw the scroolbar in its default size over it. > These display problems do not happen when the scroll bar is either on > the right or has its default width.

The GTK horizontal scroll bar has similar problems. martin
