PostCSS Show Scrollbars

PostCSS plugin for showing scrollbars in webkit.

If you have a container block with overflow: hidden; on it and the user is using Webkit the scrollbar won't show up until the user starts to scroll in the designated area. This can be misleading to the user. They might not know they can scroll. To help fix this, we can always show the scrollbar using this plugin.

The plugin allows you to set the color of the scrollbar. That is the only option.

.scrolling-container{
    scrollbar: your-color;
}

Example

.scrolling-container{
    scrollbar: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}

Will output:

.scrolling-container{
    overflow: auto;
}

.scrolling-container::-webkit-scrollbar{
    width: 7px;
    -webkit-appearance: none;
}

.scrolling-container::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb{
    border-radius: 4px;
    background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}
