The scroll bars in Arc Pro are about half the size of what you see in a typical web browser, word doc, or even ArcMap.
Any possibility of making them larger, for easier navigation of tables and windows?
Hornbydd You might consider editing the idea's title to something like "Increase scroll bar width in ArcGIS Pro" to more accurately describe the issue.
Top is Pro.
Bottom is ArcMap.
I apologize Hornbydd as you weren't the Idea's author, but it looks like charliedfinley updated the title.
Thank you!
Thanks Kory - the sceen shot helps.

Just the first person to vote, can't take credit for a great idea from Charles Finley....or can I?
For vision-impaired folks this is especially frustrating.
Has this enhancement been considered? It can really HELP...
The scroll bars in ArcGIS Pro in the Attributes Window are very narrow. It is difficult to grab them to scroll left, right, up and down. If it is not clicked on properly, and erroneous new row appears in the table because it is so sensitive. Please consider widening the scroll bars to the size in ArcMap.

Thank you for your consideration.
Please increase the width of all scroll bars or allow an option to set pixel width. Scroll bars are too narrow in all panes (Catalog, TOC, tables, etc).
A related idea Increase scroll bar width in ArcGIS Pro - Esri Community
been around for a while, but not acted upon either
YEEESSSS!!!! It is frustratingly hard to grab!
This is In Product Plan for ArcGIS Pro 2.9 @RobertHursey planned to be available sometime in November 2021.
@KoryKramer oh, thank goodness! 🙂 yay!
YES!!! Good call Y'all!
Scrollbar width has been increased in ArcGIS Pro 2.9.
See Ideas in ArcGIS Pro 2.9, go directly to 5:09 in the video, or upgrade to 2.9 to check it out.
You may have increased the width but it is very little (maybe 2 pixels). We were anticipating double the width or expand like in Windows when hovering over a scroll bar. Still have to be too precise when grabbing it. Please increase the width again or expand it when hovering over it with the mouse.
@JakeKrall I agree and would "kudos", or "like", or "thumbs up" your comment if that was available.
Hi @JakeKrall I work on the ArcGIS Pro Design team. We updated the scroll bar, this is a first step in series of changes and plan on continuing to make improvements to the User Interface. We are exploring many of the suggestions you mentioned.
Thanks for the comment here @RichardCaballero !
@JakeKrall and @Anonymous User User interface scaling was also added in ArcGIS Pro 2.9. It is definitely not a targeted solution for scrollbars only, but you may try tweaking that up a bit to see if it helps.
@KoryKramer That did the trick and helped everything else. I watched the 2.9 video and did not see this. Thank you Kory!
Glad to help, Jake!
This might be of some help. There's the ability to increase/decrease zoom level in a table by holding down ctrl key and scrolling the mouse wheel. This changes the scroll bar size as well as text size adjustments/appearance same as in Arcmap.
Hello all,
If anyone is checking in on this idea and is excited about the User Interface Scaling option that @KoryKramer mentioned - be aware that I just found a bug and had my case attached to the existing bug number 000147862 - When user interface scaling is set to greater than 100%, the layout ruler does not correctly align in ArcGIS Pro. I am using 2.9.3 and it is fixed at Pro 3.0.1. Do your research on upgrading to 3.x though - it is version breaking - once an .aprx is opened in 3.0, it will no longer be compatible with the 2. x version of the software.
Thanks for the word of caution, @Anonymous User For those who have not updated to 3.0 yet, please review https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-pro/announcements/get-ready-for-arcgis-pro-3-0/ which points to the Migration from ArcGIS Pro 2.x to 3.0 help topic. Note that project packages can be used to share a project from 3.0 to 2.x
honestly, the scroll bars could still be wider in Pro 3.1 to be comparable to how ArcMap was. I think it also is because the scroll bar is rounded now and doesn't fill the entire bar.
