How to make scrollbar visible when using native scrolling in Android?

ionic-v1
1

Scroll bar is not visible when native scrolling is used in Android.
How to add the scrollbar?

Thank you.

use overflow-scroll=“false” in ion-content…

overflow-scroll=“false” will disable native scroll for the specified ion-content.
But I want native scrolling + scroll bar

Somehow scroll bar is shown if I used crosswalk webview.
Changing webkit scrollbar css values changes the scroll bar styles.

It does not work if I remove crosswalk. (Android 6.0.1 Device)
Any one knows how to show webkit scrollbar?

This is very strange.
I put the ionic serve url to android default browser and chrome browser, scrollbar is visible as expected.
And those scrollbars are not JS scrollbars. They are browser(native) scrollbars. I can change styles using webkit scrollbar css.

ion-content::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background-color: darkgrey;
outline: 1px solid red;
}

Only place it does not work is in my app.
It works in crosswalk, default browser and chrome browser

Any thoughts?

My issue is similar to this.

I used https://github.com/mayflower/cordova-android-scrollbar plugin and also removed position:absolute from ion-content.Then I was able to see the scrollbar. But that is for the whole web view. I can not get it work for divs (ion-content)

Any idea?

Nope. I did not use the scrollbars and that was not too bad.
