Hello. In an earlier version of TB, don't recalll when, the left pane in Account Settings expanded to take up more than half the screen width. Now in version 102.x the same thing happened to the address book
Is it possible to shrinl both so the right pane becomes wider thus making the data more readable? Thanks.

Re: Change Size of Panes
Have you tried expanding the right pane by dragging it's right border to the right?

I've had the same question but never asked. There doesn't seem to be any column resize arrows across the Account Settings or Address Book page.DanRaisch wrote:Have you tried expanding the right pane by dragging it's right border to the right?
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.

Ditto. There aren't those typical arrows to drag borders.

Re: Change Size of Panes
Try something like:
Reference
http://searchfox.org/comm-esr102/source ... ssBook.css
Code: Select all
/* Thunderbird userContent.css */
@-moz-document url-prefix("about:addressbook") {
div#booksPane { width: 16em !important; } /* default 18em */
body.layout-list div#cardsPane { width: 20em !important; } /* default 27em */
section#emailAddresses { background-color: orange !important; } /* test */
}

Re: Change Size of Panes
This works nicely. Thanks very much. I went to the referenced page and tried to find something similar for the sccount settings but came up empty.

Re: Change Size of Panes
Regarding account settings:
I tried the following entry using the userChrome.css file and userContent.css file. That entry doesn't work.

Some styles must be registered on the agent level and not on the user level.

Re: Change Size of Panes
This is way over my head. I do thank you for trying. At least we got the address book done.

Re: Change Size of Panes
These settings apparently do not work with Thunderbird ver 105.0b3.
