Apply overlay style to <textarea> scroll views.
makeTextArea creates an NSScrollView without setting scrollerStyle. During each sync, the <textarea> branch calls applyTextAreaProps, which also does not set it. Therefore, the new assignment in applyScrollContentSize never reaches textareas. A legacy vertical scroller can reduce the text view width and cause premature wrapping.
Suggested fix
NSView *makeTextArea()
{
NSScrollView *sv = [[NSScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:NSZeroRect];
+ if (sv.scrollerStyle != NSScrollerStyleOverlay) sv.scrollerStyle = NSScrollerStyleOverlay;
sv.hasVerticalScroller = YES; void applyTextAreaProps(NSScrollView *sv, const gea::embedded::ui::Node &node, int nodeId)
{
using gea::embedded::ui::Tree;
Tree &tree = Tree::instance();
+ if (sv.scrollerStyle != NSScrollerStyleOverlay) sv.scrollerStyle = NSScrollerStyleOverlay;
GeaTextAreaView *tv = objc_getAssociatedObject(sv, "gea.text_view");🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

Problem
When macOS uses always-shown (legacy) scrollers, two things go wrong in every Gea scroll container. Both reproduce on main.
macOS picks legacy scrollers when "Show scroll bars" is set to "Always", and under "Automatically" when a pointing device calls for them.
Change
NSScrollerto the scroller, alongside the text controls and canvases it already skips.Why overlay scrollers
The same probe (one box per CSS scroll case) was measured in Safari (WebKit), in headless Chrome 153 and on macOS with legacy scrollers:
overflow-y: auto, rows at 100%overflow-y: scroll, rows at 100%overflow-y: auto, rows at100vw100vwignores the bar)scrollbar-width: noneoverflow: hiddenWith overlay scrollers, the web, Gea main and this PR agree in every case: no gutter, right edges visible, no sideways scroll.
On the web, a legacy bar takes space and the content reflows into what is left. Gea's layout does not know the bar's width. Overlay scrollers match the engine's own model: no gutter, and the thumb drawn over the content, as on ESP32/WASM and iOS.
Making the engine reserve the bar's width would be a Core layout change and would also cover Windows. That is left for separate work, as is
scrollbar-width: none, which the engine currently ignores.Verification
targets/macos/test/scroller-presentation.test.mjspins both rules. It fails against main and passes with this change.npm testpasses (14 files).GEA_MACOS_VERIFY_ONCE.This PR is independent of #1. A local merge of both is conflict-free, and its renderer is identical to the build tested together.
