  Hi Marco,

  Couple of comments on the look of it

  1/ if you set the animation time to somehting long (500ms), then hover on a scrollbar, in the groove, and not on the handle, while making sure that the view in which you hove does not have focus, in order to make sure that the handle is painted grey, not blue (either focus blue or hover blue), there is a glitch at the end of the animation where a somewhat too dark grey jumps to a lighter one. Must be some problem with transparency. Can you confirm, double check ? I 'think' this is also the case when you mouse-over the handle but this is less clear.

  2/ I wonder whether the unhovered scrollbar of a focused view should use the focus blue for the handle (as it is now, without your change), instead of light grey. I at least was using is somewhat strong blue to easily catch the view that have focus, instead of the much more subtle blue outline. What do you think ?

  3/ I agree that the animation looks good on views like dolphin and systemsettings. However for views with a header, or when you have both vertical and horizontal bars it looks stranger . But this is a matter of taste

  4/ finally, I had this crazy idea :)
  What if ... instead of making the groove "fade-in" on hover, we would make it "expand" vertically, from around the handle ? as if it would appear from under the handle and grow to ocupy the full height of the view ? Do you think it could look cool ?
