Of course, I got my English wrong it my first post. What I meant (but
wrote the opposite) was the following:

A horizontal scroll bar gets displayed by default. That is, a scroll bar
that should react to the width of the document. This I find a little
strange.

Can you tell me how to get rid of this? I couldn't find anything in the
documentation.

Best regards,

Mads
