Scrolling panel - scroll bar format
The scroll bar in a scrolling panel looks "classic" (the way that scroll bars have looked for decades) in the StoryLine file -- a wide bar and up/down arrows at the top/bottom to further indicate "scroll here" (see attached insl.jpg).
But when I preview or publish it, the scroll bar morphs into this skinny thing with no up/down arrows at the top/bottom (see attached prepub.jpg).
It's not a classic template vs modern template thing. And in fact, the previewed/published version used to look the same (this may have been in SL3 rather than SL360). This seems like it's just a violation of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
A large chunk of my student base is elderly, technophobic, or both. Is there a way to format the scroll bar to the "classic" way that is (1) more familiar to them and (2) easier to manipulate?

Hello Clive and Kairas,
Thank you for adding your votes to this request! I've updated the feature report with your comments.
Adding my vote too!
Please also add a scroll panel from left to right, so not just from top to bottom.
Thank you!
Thanks for voting for the scrolling panel feature request, Caca! I've informed our product team of your need and additional comments. We'll let you know once this feature is added to Storyline.
In case you still need this feature, If you group your scroll bar with another object, then you can rotate it. You can also format your text to be 90 or 270 degrees rotated (on the Text Box tab).
I agree that it should be a built in feature though. Scroll bars are already hard to design, it shouldn't require extra layers of manipulation.
Add my name to the request for a chunky scroll bar. But also, I'd like the ability to colour it. My project is high contrast, and I'd like to choose one of the bright project colours to ensure it's seen.
