Re: Reg edit for Scroll Bar Width

cyHScr = 13
cxVScr = 13
cyVScr = 20
Now, what they do is control the size of the arrows used on the Horizontal and Vertical scrollbars.
cx = width
cy = height
The larger the arrow, the larger the scrollbar. So a higher number for cxVScr will make the vertical scrollbar wider to accommodate the new width size of the arrow button. Whereas a higher number for cyVScr will only make the scroll buttons taller.

Hope that makes sense.

Thank you ...
