Yet Another Elementary Theme Fix for OOo Scrollbars

This also applies to Libre Office and IBM’s Symphony.

First, see John Roger’s Post on Fixing OpenOffice Scrollbars with the Elementary Theme, make the changes noted there.

Then a few lines above the code noted in John’s post.

GtkScrollbar	 ::has-backward-stepper = 0/1

Look for the GtkRange section of the config file. Add this line:

GtkRange :: stepper-size = 0

This maintains the “elementary” theme look throughout your Gtk applications as intended with no steppers, but shows steppers in OOo and the scroll bar in OOo works as well now too.

Ideally I’d like to just set the steppers to be white, but I’m not good with Gtk styles. Anyone have any ideas if this can be done?
