This can occur using FireFox on Windows, usually when using extra-large fonts. To fix it:

WINDOWS XP ONLY : To correct it (but not change the font size), do the following:

  1. From your Desktop area, right-click and choose Properties.

  2. Click on the Appearance tab, and then click the Advanced button to display the Advanced Appearance screen.

  3. Select Scrollbar from the  pull-down menu and check the size setting.

  4. If greater than 20, change the size back to 17 (which is the default) and click OK, then Apply.

  5. After changing the setting, open a new Firefox browser window and access the Grade Center. The horizontal scroll bar should again be visible.

 

WINDOWS VISTA or WINDOWS-7

  1. Open your Control Panel, select Personalization, then select Window Color.

  2. Click Advanced Appearance Settings.

  3. If you do not see Advanced Appearance Settings select an Aero theme like "Windows 7" then repeat Steps 1 and 2.

  4. Select Scrollbar in pull-down menu, then set value for Scrollbar Size to 17 or less.

  5. Restart Firefox and access the Grade Center. The horizontal scroll bar should again be visible.
