Scroll bar tone

[robert_hume]

  This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

As someone with eyesight issues (hard to see low contrast settings), it is VERY difficult to see the scroll bar in certain areas of Canvas.

A light gray scroll bar on a white background might as well not be there.

I am facilitating a training course designed by our Instructional Designers and when I looked at the assignment, I did not realize there was more information I needed to grade properly as it was only accessible after scrolling down. Since I did not see the scroll bar, I thought the assignment was completed.

A darker toned gray or even black scroll bar would be much preferable against a white background.
