There are no scroll arrows in my current Mint 17.2 setup. I'm using this system on a laptop and it's hard to go without these, especially when reading documents or browsing webpages that are longer than a few pages. I've tried switching the desktop theme from Cinnamon to MATE to Mint XP but that didn't help. Does anybody have a solution?

Thanks in advance.

The scroll direction is shared with the touchpad and the mouse.
I would like the touchpad to be netural and mouse to not be.
I tried some applications like mos and they did not do it.
I know I can create an app to do it myself, but I really hope there are some answer for it.
I've had this exact frustration for two years and finally did a search and found a solution.
From this Apple discussion page (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6931667), I found ScrollReverser (https://github.com/pilotmoon/Scroll-Reverser/releases/tag/v1.8.2), which installed in a second and works as soon as you set the Preferences for it.
Hope it helps you too.
I'm experiencing wonky behavior using a Mac to remote into a Windows 7 PC using Microsoft's Remote Desktop app for the Mac, and using a Magic Trackpad 2 as my primary input device. The problems arise primarily when scrolling in various applications in Windows. It appears the Magic Trackpad is flooding windows with scroll events, causing unpredictable behavior in many applications. Some scroll ok, others whip around or back and forth, or stutter uncontrollably. I probably need to find a way to "filter" out this flood of scroll events into something more manageable by Windows, but I am unaware of any existing apps or utilities to do so? Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or have any potential solutions to it?
A bit more research, and I've got at least a partial solution to the issue. It helps greatly to turn off some of the "Magic" Apple imparts to its trackpads. Namely, turning off 'scrolling with inertia' helps with scrolling when using Remote Desktop. The default functionality for magic trackpad scrolling is to apply inertia to your scroll, making pages continue to scroll after you release the pad like they have weight. While this looks and feels cool, it wreaks havoc with some older windows apps. The trick is to turn this feature off you have to open the Mac's Accessibility control panel, not the one for the trackpad itself. Within Accessibility there are additional mouse and trackpad tweaks, one of which is to turn off inertial scrolling. Also, reducing the scrolling speed to its lowest setting makes Remote Desktop scrolling a bit easier. Hope this helps others.
One of a kind workaround that I came up recently is to decrease the number of lines for one notch of the mouse wheel.
P.S. For some reason the "Wheel" tab is not visible when I'm connected via MS RDP client, but available for the beta version (Version 10.1.5 (866)).
On the Mac side, pay attention to the speed part in the trackpad settings. Here I suggest you bring it to the fastest. Also, in the remote (windows) machine, increase the line per speed from default 3 to 10 And again, on the windows side, set the mouse speed to the fastest in the additional options section.
I'm at a loss as to why my website (violetoeuvre.com) display differently on a PC than on a Mac. It might be plausible if I was using different browsers, but I'm using Chrome in both cases.
I can't figure out why Emma Carmichael and the navigation at the top (Writing, Blog, Contact) is a little above the black on the PC, but bleeds into the white on a Mac (what i want).

Thanks!
Are the images randomized? They are two different images shown. Is there a chance on is a chance one has a cached version with different CSS / HTML?
How about posting the code for the page - maybe someone will know the intricacies of mac vs pc in chrome with respect to the elements you're using.
I guess issue is with height of black section.
try giving height of black section in %.
That might work!!
Hope it helps.
I'm creating a cross-platform GUI using JavaFX 2.0, and some of the controls that I use require tooltips to be displayed when the mouse hovers over them. I've got the tooltips displaying fine on my Windows 7 machine, but on OSX (10.7.3) the tooltips appear and then dissapear immediately, and the only way to get them to display again is to move the mouse off the control and then back on.
Is this a known issue with tooltips under OSX, or is there something special that needs to be done?
Many thanks,
Joseph.
Looks like a known issue RT-14798 "Mac: tooltips disappear right after they are displayed", which was fixed on January 26, 2012. Download the latest JavaFX OS-X early access release and, if you are still having an issue, reopen the bug. Signup is required to access the bug tracker, but anybody can signup and create or comment on bugs and issues.
I have a slide bar to adjust the brightness of the screen on notebook displays in my application, but I found those articles from internet are adjusting the Gamma value, the behavior is not really like pressing the special key in keyboard. Is there a way to do it? Thanks in advance.
Here is some links what I found.

Very unikely that there is a way to do it with software - it's probably controlled by the laptops BIOS, which windows will not have hooks into.
If your app is for Linux you could see how the Screen Brightness applet works by looking at the code.
