GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 569993
Unnecessary gap at the right edge prevents scroll bar from appearing at the right place
Last modified: 2009-05-07 13:15:32 UTC
When window is maximized, scroll bar usually appears at the edge. That way, user can easily move the mouse to the right and grab the bar (it's one aspect of the Fitt's law). Applications like Nautilus, Epiphany, Firefox, Gnome Terminal, Tomboy behave nicely in that area. Gedit is the exception, but it should be fairly easy to fix.

Unfortunately it isn't. It's a gtk problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 123408 ***
