Toggle window scroll bar
It's not clear to me how to disable a window scroll bar.
I have frame scrollbars turned off:
(scroll-bar-mode -1)
I can enable a window scroll bar with
(set-window-scroll-bars (selected-window) nil 'right)
I expect the following to remove the scroll bar, but it doesn't. It only removes the fringe adjacent to the scroll bar.
(set-window-scroll-bars (selected-window) nil nil nil nil)
Checking (window-current-scroll-bars (selected-window))
, it returns nil
as expected. My understanding is that window-current-scroll-bars
should tell me the dimensions of the window's scroll bar, returning nil
if there is no scroll bar.
Maybe it's a frame scroll bar that somehow snuck in? Yet (frame-current-scroll-bars)
returns nil
as expected.
If I do something like C-h f
or M-x
after calling (set-window-scroll-bars (selected-window) nil nil nil nil)
, the scroll bar will disappear. Yet simply switching windows does nothing. The scroll bar remains.
I'm confused! Am I missing something?
I am using GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2018-05-30
.

This appears to be a bug in Emacs. Although the bug fix has been pushed to the Emacs-26 branch, these changes either don't solve the problem or are not reflected in the latest Emacs 26 build, which is the version I am using (i.e. GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2018-05-30
).
Trying the latest Emacs-27 development snapshot, the problem has been fixed, as indicated by @Tyler.
