Created attachment 188048 [details] Solution-patch When i use ScrollBar.getVisible() under gtk, it returns true even if the scroll bar is not visible. This happens cause getVisible() doesn't check if the scroll bar is visible, getVisible() check if the policy is not GTK_POLICY_NEVER. The problem is that the policy can be GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC and the scroll bar can be hidden. In this reason, it returns true instead of false. Please see my patch which solves the problem.
Arun, please check this out.
Michael, Can you please provide me with a code snippet which helps me to reproduce the problem stated? I see that getVisible() does return false when the ScrollBar visibility is set to false. Besides, you should use isVisible() to confirm visibility rather than getVisible(). In fact, the javadoc for getVisible() itself states that the behavior you noticed is possible and so might not need to be fixed in my opinion. Please see the relevant javadoc excerpt below: "If one of the receiver's ancestors is not visible or some other condition makes the receiver not visible, this method may still indicate that it is considered visible even though it may not actually be showing." Thanks!

For the first table getVisible for the horizontal scrollbar returns true despite the fact that it's clearly not visible.
