How to use it

Just wrap with AdaptiveScrollbar your widget that contains your ScrollView object and specify the controller that is attached to this ScrollView object.

AdaptiveScrollbar(
  controller: controller,
  child: Center(
    child: ListView.builder(
      controller: controller,
      itemBuilder: (context, index) { 
        return Text(
            "Line " + index.toString());
      },
      itemCount: 50,
    ))),

Multiple scrollbars

You can add multiple scrollbars to the screen at once. The controller is a required parameter in order to track changes to only one object if there are several ScrollView objects in your widget.

return AdaptiveScrollbar(
  controller: verticalScroll,
  width: width,
  child: AdaptiveScrollbar(
    controller: horizontalScroll,
    position: ScrollbarPosition.bottom,
    width: width,
    child: SingleChildScrollView(
    controller: horizontalScroll,
    scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
    child: Container(
      width: 2000,
      child: Container(
        color: Colors.lightBlueAccent,
        child: ListView.builder(
          controller: verticalScroll,
          itemCount: 30,
          itemBuilder: (context, index) {
            return Container(
              height: 30,
              child: Text("Line " + index.toString()));
          }))),
    )));

Customization

You can position your scrollbar on any of the 4 sides of the screen. There is only one thing - if you choose ScrollbarPosition.top or ScrollbarPosition.bottom, your scrollbar will actually be rotated 90 degrees, and the top will be on the right. Do not forget about this if you specify the paddings for bottom and slider. I'll think about how to simplify this.

AdaptiveScrollbar(
  controller: verticalScroll,
  width: verticalWidth,
  child: AdaptiveScrollbar(
    controller: horizontalScroll,
    position: ScrollbarPosition.bottom,
    
    //the horizontal scrollbar will have a padding
    // on the LEFT by the width of the vertical scrollbar
    bottomPadding: EdgeInsets.only(bottom: verticalWidth),
    
    width: horizontalWidth,
    child: ...

To set the width of the slider, you can set the horizontal sliderPadding. The vertical sliderPadding will determine the padding of the slider from the start and the end of the bottom. The height of the slider is determined automatically based on the size of the ScrollView object. If ScrollView object has nowhere to scroll, the scrollbar will not be displayed on the screen.

You can set colors for bottom and slider, or completely set the decorations for them.
