So, I am watching these tutorials and can see in them vibrant blue scrolling bar, very sharp. My pie charts in Logos are like that. But my scroll bars are a dull grey. How do I trade grays for blues ?
I agree. I can hardly see the dim gray scroll bars. Glad yo hear that I am not alone.
In this tutorial video, the scroll bars are originally gray but turn blue when dragged. I can't reproduce that but it is much more attractive visually! Themes for Logos? I find that vibrant colors such as that of the part charts are really a nice addition to the working environment. If there is not a way to do this already, it would be a great addition.
Here is the video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1dYjjiDRms&list=PLXkjd_l1xkSQ5fM605M-F5xikKNGBdPvj&index=1
Here is a screenshot of the vibrant blue scrollbar:
Aye....men!
Is it possible this is a feature of their video screen capture software? (Just a guess as I have no experience in this field!)
It is good to know that I'm not the only one who has longed for a more visible scrolling bar!
Making the scroll bar easier to see would be a good thing.
Who thought making them hard to see was a good idea in the first place?
Not entirely impossible: perhaps some users would be visually distracted by a more vibrant bar? However, in the video, it only becomes blue once dragged. Hence it should not be a distraction the rest of the time.
The scroll bars were blue during the beta (when the videos were shot) but were changed before release. I'll pass the feedback along.

I like the grey, but then my eyes are young.
Only if they are that noticeable while actually scrolling please [;)]
vibrant blue scrolling bar,
"Vibrant" is pretty much a relic of Libronix 3 with its' vivid red's and blues.
Since L4 things have gone down hill visually with muted greys, blues and purples.
It was a deliberate design change [to upgrade? to "modernize? to "apple-lize"?] but gives no "love" to any of us with aging eyes.
More than once I've searched and searched for something only to be told "it is there right in front of you." And Logos is not alone. Microsoft Word [may have] led the trend towards "pale" or more "bland.".
Perhaps one of you will invent "Logos glasses" -- much like those 3-D movie versions...then we too will be able to see the borders "pop"? [:)]
Increasing the font sizes and the program scaling does seem to help somewhat--as long as it does not "break" something else.
+1 for blue [8-|]
My favorite color and the blue icon for Logos enhances that joy!
Just not too blue. Not scary blue. Moderation in all things.

One reason--from the very long list of reasons I still use and infinitely prefer L3 over Lwhizbang 4/5/6--is the appearance. To me, Libronix is light years ahead in the "look" department, even if the look is considered "old school". Call it "clear", call it "vibrant", it is exceedingly more eye friendly, and I mean that most of all in that it presents better, or in a word, it is more "obvious". I would trade every single advancement and dataset that has been introduced since L4 came out if I could get an updated version of L3 that had a smattering of relatively minor feature tweaks.

Red has always been my least favorite color. I hate red cars, red dresses, red lipstick...although I do like red wine, but that's a different kind of red, methinks. Always liked blue, although it's never been my favorite color, either. But there is a joy in seeing that red logo at the bottom of my screen that the blue and white logo will never be able to generate.
Vive la rouge!!
Purple, dull orange, rainbow, alternating colors while we're at it. C'mmon people, let's not make something straight-forward into something complicated.
What I mean is this: Bradley said he will report back to Logos concerning the desire for the more visible scrolling bar (when dragging). This makes for an easy solution: they put it back as they had it the beta.
If we start talking of different colors and who prefers what, there is no more easy solution. Perhaps they will give it up. As a case in point: I would definitely prefer blue to red!
