I set GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING
environment variable to 0
in ~/.xprofile
, ~/.profile
, ~/.xinitrc
and ~/.pam_environment
, but still GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING
environment variable has value 1
.
Who overrides this environment variable?
I did it already:
$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface overlay-scrolling
false
AFAIK it should be only in ~/.xsessionrc
like this
GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING=1
and that will overwrite whatever is in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/
and not the other way around
Brute force searching might help:
$ sudo grep -R GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING / 2>/dev/null
ripgrep
is a lot faster at these searches, but has to be installed:
$ sudo pacman -Syu ripgrep
$ sudo rg -R GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING / 2>/dev/null
.xsessionrc
also had no effect…
I got
/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/quodlibet/_init.py: environ["GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING"] = "0"
/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/CinnamonGtkSettings.py: GLib.setenv("GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING", "1", True)
/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/CinnamonGtkSettings.py: GLib.setenv("GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING", "0", True)
CinnamonGtkSettings.py
sets environment variable.
def update_overlay_state(self):
if self.interface_settings.get_boolean("gtk-overlay-scrollbars"):
GLib.setenv("GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING", "1", True)
else:
GLib.setenv("GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING", "0", True)
I found setting in “Effect” (scroll box fade effect), BUT even though I disabled scroll box fade in the settings, the value of GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING
was still set to 1
.
