I have searched for all existing open AND closed issues and discussions for similar requests. I have found none that is comparable to my request.
Verify Feature Scope
I have read through and understood the scope definition for feature requests in the Issues section. I believe my feature request meets the definition and belongs in the Issues section instead of the Discussions.
Problem Description
Hi OpenwebUI team.
Please consider adding a tweak to the UI - in long and very long chats it is very tedious to scroll up to the previous messages/responses. Recently this issue was even further aggravated by the problems with page scrolling. There are no vertical scrollbars in the UI either.
Desired Solution you'd like
I am asking you that you add both scrollbars and also the Back to Top button - we often need to go to the very beginning of the conversation. It is great that we have the Go to the Bottom button but we equally need Back to Top button.

Addressed in dev, it's hidden in chat menu in the navbar and only visible when the first message is currently not visible.
