        <pre>It looks like it's currently not possible to style Webkit's scrollbars without making them visible the whole time. Just try it: Style them using CSS and suddenly the scrollbars will be visible the whole time (even the ones that are meant to be only visible while scrolling).

Here's an example: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/leo/ht82ozhw/embedded/result/">http://jsfiddle.net/leo/ht82ozhw/embedded/result/</a>

Even if your OS' setting is to only show them while scrolling, they will be shown the whole time because you've styled them using CSS.

I've already reported this as a bug on GitHub's Atom editor, because I wasn't able to style the scrollbar of a certain theme. But it looks like it's not their fault... :)</pre>
