Did you know... you can hide the vertical and horizontal scrollbars in the editor? - #038

Today's tip truly embraces the spirit of "Did you know?" 

Go to Tools - Options - Text Editor - General, and under Display, check Vertical scroll bar or Horizontal scroll bar. 

HideScrollbar

And yes, you can still scroll both vertically and horizontally, even if the scroll bars are not visible.

It's handy if you're a keyboard-addict and don't want to waste space for a scrollbar you'll never click with a mouse.

I am not sure If I am going to use it any day. And Personally I don't think a scroll bar can take that much space that I will want to remove them.
