scrollbar css tricks

The scrollbar set of CSS properties is a proprietary style hook from Internet Explorer 5.5, which let designers create custom themes for the browser’s native scrollbars. Currently, it is exposed behind the -webkit vendor prefix for use in browsers using the Webkit (and Blink) rendering engine. This almanac entry is an overview, for a more complete breakdown of working with custom scrollbars, please read this CSS-Tricks article.

body::-webkit-scrollbar {
    width: 1em;
}
 
body::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
    -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
 
body::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
  background-color: darkgrey;
  outline: 1px solid slategrey;
}

The -webkit-scrollbar family of properties consists of seven different pseudo-elements that, together, comprise a full scrollbar UI element:

1. ::-webkit-scrollbar addresses the background of the bar itself. It is usually covered by the other elements
2. ::-webkit-scrollbar-button addresses the directional buttons on the scrollbar
3. ::-webkit-scrollbar-track addresses the empty space “below” the progress bar
4. ::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece is the top-most layer of the the progress bar not covered by the draggable scrolling element (thumb)
5. ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb addresses the draggable scrolling element that resizes depending on the size of the scrollable element
6. ::-webkit-scrollbar-corner addresses the (usually) bottom corner of the scrollable element, where two scrollbars might meet
7. ::-webkit-resizer addresses the draggable resizing handle that appears above the scrollbar-corner at the bottom corner of some elements
