Couldn't decide if this was a Support Request, a Question or a Bug Report. All I know is it is probably a Problem.
So I am playing with plenty of Mods, and a lot of them made the new Menu thing right of the Hotbar their Home. Thing is, my Monitor is 1680x1050 and reducing the UI Scale is definitely not an option for my eyes, as I want all Item Slots to be 1cm² in Size, and I do not want to buy a bigger Monitor, since that wouldn't fit well on my Desk.
As you can see on the Screenshot, the List of available Commands for the Sidebar thing extends up to the maximum Height of the Screen, if one more Mod decides to add something to that List, I will probably no longer be able to click it, so a Scrollbar for that Menu would be a great Addition.
Edit: Ofcourse I took precautions and placed all the List Elements that I am not going to remove from the Sidebar up at the top, so it wont matter if they get obscured, at least right now.
Edit 2: In a follow up Post I have collected the Evidence for a UI Bug,
At 100% UI Scale after starting the Game normally, the Scrollbar does not exist despite the List definitely going offscreen.
Then I have set it to 75% UI Scale in the Settings, and all of a sudden a Scrollbar appeared for that List!!!
And then I went back to 100% and somehow magically the Scrollbar STAYED!!!
This is clearly a Bug, since it shows inconsistent UI Behavior.

For completeness sake, what is your screen resolution and GUI scale?
EDIT: Resolution is 1680x1050

UI Scale is 100%, and now that I think of it, why is 75% the default, shouldn't that one be called 100%? XD

75% is probably the default because your screen is less than 1080p.
If you set the GUI scale to 97%, is the entire list visible? If it is, this is not going to be considered a bug at this time, as the minimum fully-supported resolution is 1080p at 100% GUI scale.

The entire list is already visible at 100%, thing is: one more Element to that List and it goes off the screen, and with more Mods this can become a HUGE problem even for people with larger Monitors. That is why I suggest a Scrollbar to it as a fix, so that no matter the amount of modded extra Entries (and there can technically be hundreds of those), it will always be selectable and nobody gets issues.

New Development on the thing, apparently setting the UI scale to 75% fixed the lack of scrollbar, then setting it back to 100% made the scrollbar stay and everything works now somehow. Might need further investigation on my end as to why that happened.

Okay I have collected the Evidence for a GUI Bug,
At 100% UI Scale after starting the Game normally, the Scrollbar does not exist despite the List definitely going offscreen.
Then I have set it to 75% UI Scale in the Settings, and all of a sudden a Scrollbar appeared for that List!!!
And then I went back to 100% and somehow magically the Scrollbar STAYED!!!

Huh, ran into this same issue, although I start at 75% (and it goes off screen). Any way to fix this without messing with the GUI scale on each and every game reload?GregoriusT wrote: ↑Tue Apr 16, 2019 4:23 amOkay I have collected the Evidence for a GUI Bug,

Okay just saw a Fix listed in the update Log from yesterday, which describes my Issue. Apparently this was a duplicate all along and I didnt go back in time far enough to see the other Report of this Issue.
