New type of scroll behaviour 'interactive' or 'move' in scroll area

[bweinlich]

Hello!

Thank you so much for your great work – I love Mantine!

If I had one wish, it would be to have a new scroll behavior type like 'interactive' or 'move' for the ScrollArea component. This type would show the scrollbars only when:

a) the user is actively scrolling (like with type="scroll"),
b) or when the mouse is moving over the scroll area.

In my opinion, the 'hover' scroll type makes the scrollbar appear a bit too aggressively when the mouse happens to be over the scroll area. I’m developing a chat application where user input is mostly done via keyboard, so scrollbars are only necessary when the user moves the mouse (which is usually also when they operate the scroll wheel).

I’d be really happy if this feature could be implemented!

Thanks for kind words! I did not get the difference with the current scroll type and the new proposed mode

Thank you for the answer! :)

Difference from 'scroll':
The scrollbars are also visible when the mouse cursor is moving within the scroll area, not just when actual scrolling occurs.

Difference from 'hover':
The scrollbars are only visible when the mouse cursor is actively moving — not when it is resting still within the scroll area.
