I am working on a touch screen on a small device and the custom width of the scroll-bar is no good as one of my requirements is that everything needs to be doable by finger
And if you don't want to use XAML, you can do it in the Application's constructor, e.g.
using System.Windows;
public partial class App
{
public App()
{
Resources.Add(SystemParameters.VerticalScrollBarWidthKey, 50d);
Resources.Add(SystemParameters.HorizontalScrollBarHeightKey, 50d);
}
}
