Bug Description

I want to report 3 bugs related to Firefox browser in Ubuntu Mate 18.04 and 18.10:

1- The scrollbar width is so small. And I do not know how to increase it.

2- When I click in empty scrollbar in firefox, the bar goes directly to the place instead of goes down screen by screen.

3- the scale display in firefox and in the whole Ubuntu Mate is so bad. all sentences are so small. Could you make the scale display and firefox work like in Kubuntu because in Kubuntu the firefox and scale display work great.

1. I've noticed Firefox's scrollbar is narrower by a pixel or two than fully native GTK+ apps for most themes. This seems to be a bug with how Firefox interprets the GTK+ theme. When I've tried them, Arc (arc-theme) seems to be closer to the same, as does Adapta.

2. This is standard behavior for GTK+ 3 apps.

Thanks for the report William.

 re #1: would you mind filing an upstream bug report at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=dupes%7CFirefox and sharing the link here ?

 re #2: as noted by Alexander, this is standard behaviour for GTK3 apps (note that chromium behaves differently though, as you seem to be expecting)

 re #3: do you have a HiDPI screen? Can you please file a separate bug report? Tracking several unrelated bugs in one place is inefficient. Thanks!
