In the SMS app, when scrolling up and down a conversation, the scrollbar changes its size constantly when scrolling quickly. Minor bug, but it impairs the UX. PS: Glad when all the major bugs are ironed out and Jolla can turn to stuff like this :-)

Scrollbar is the word I guess ;)

I cannot reproduce that, but maybe I'm motorically challenged, or my SMS convos aren't long enough.

Right, scrollbar! It has something to do with the length of the individual SMSes. Even when scrolling very slowly in a longer conversation, you can clearly see the scrollbar changing its size corresponding to the SMS currently displayed. The top of the scrollbar stays at the place its supposed to be at in the conversation, but the lower part changes its places according to the scrollbar lengthening or shortening. I can reproduce that behaviour btw!

To clarify you probably should use "bar", "thumb" or "grip", since I guess you're talking about the little with marker that moves (I see the resize as well). Scrollbar is used mostly for the entire structure of arrows, space and thumb/handle.

It's not a bug. It's loading more content when you scrolling to less recent items. The more content is loaded the smaller will be the scrollbar. Sounds natural.

@AliNa True. The thing is, the scrollbar gets bigger and smaller constantly when scrolling. Still not resolved in 1.1.19, but it's a minor problem.
