Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
The toolbar doesn't have a context menu for me ...
Damnit, folks, it's Fx, not FF!

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
I just unzipped and took a look at: CompactHeader-0.99.2\chrome\CustomizeHeaderToolbar\content\CHTMessenger.js. I don't understand the code, but are you missing something here? (empty else{} near the bottom):
Code: Select all
function loadToolboxData() {
var hdrToolbox = document.getElementById("header-view-toolbox");
var hdrToolbar = document.getElementById("header-view-toolbar");
var saveToolbox = document.getElementById("CHTSaveToolboxData");
var saveToolbar = document.getElementById("CHTSaveToolbarData");
if (hdrToolbox && hdrToolbar && saveToolbox && saveToolbar && saveToolbox.getAttribute("gotData") == "true") {
hdrToolbar.firstPermanentChild = saveToolbar.firstPermanentChild;
hdrToolbar.lastPermanentChild = saveToolbar.lastPermanentChild;
hdrToolbox.palette = saveToolbox.palette.cloneNode(true);
if (saveToolbox.toolbarset) {
hdrToolbox.toolbarset = saveToolbox.toolbarset.cloneNode(true);
} else {
}
}
}

The customization dialog should be there (see screenshot in the first post of this thread). It's a little hard to find. Then choose restore default set. This should solve the rest of the problems.

I don't get it... if I click "a little above the date" (below the toolbar), no context menu appears.

Wow. Overly complicated. Is there no way to make it show icons by default? Plus, is there no way to make the "Customize..." option accessible over a greater region of the header pane?
Thanks

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
Ok, try this:
search for the file compactHeaderOverlay.xul in the directory where the add ons are installed. Search for msgHeaderViewDeck. Replace the line with
Will be fixed in next version.

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
That works. Thanks.
Another issue though. Is the following your bug or TB3 "Classic" theme extension bug?:
With TB3 "Classic" theme, the "other actions" button looks a mess, like the following screenshot:
However, if I remove the button, dragging it to the "Customize Toolbar" dialog, it looks normal there. It is only when on the header pane that it looks bad.
Why I'm not sure who's bug this is is because the button looked normal on the header pane with CompactHeader 0.8.3.
Also, because of this incompatibility, the "Customize Toolbar" dialog ends up looking like this:
I've notified zamula and linked to this post from the TB3 "Classic" theme extension thread.

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
More bugs.
Now I'm also getting the following in Error Console, and navigating between messages is slow:
Error: aElt is null
Source file: chrome://global/content/customizeToolbar.js
Line: 654
----------
Error: toolbar is null
Source file: chrome://global/content/customizeToolbar.js
Line: 778
Edit: Seems to have gone away after updating to today's nightly and restarting. Hopefully for good, but we shall see...

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
jmozmoz -- could you let me know where you get the icons for the header icons from now? Something recently changed in the default theme and I'm not sure what to fix. Thanks!

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
Classic theme updated to Version 1.1.4:
Updated to use latest default theme changes -- fixes issues with buttons in header pane.
Folder pane uses default Aero icons for Server, Inbox, and Outbox.
Thread pane uses default Star icon, since it's smaller.

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
I am unable to use any version of compact header (event the latest 0.99.4). Using TB 3.0b4 on Opensuse get the message when trying to install that it could not be installed because not compatible with TB 3.0b4.
is this a linux/Opensuse specific problem? Does the compact header only work on Windows? I used to have it running no problem on XP

Should be fixed in version 0.99.5.

The versions 0.9.x and 0.99.x are only working with recent nightly builds of TB and the release candidate 1, which should be publicly announced this week end or next week. Please either stay with 0.8.x for TB 3.0b4 or update TB.

Re: New addon to compact header pane in Thunderbird 3.0
I stil have the forward button bigger than other with version 0.99.5.
