Re: Thunderbird 60 / Addon Compatibility
It would be useful if the status list of addons identified legacy non-bootstrapped ones. I think it regards anything with a manifest.json as a mail extension. Presumably anything with a legacy key would qualify. Or ones with both manifest.json and chrome.manifest - it that possible?
(I was going to post that to the tb-planning google group but it said 'web posting disabled'. Do all responses have to be email?)
I'm still unsure of the future of legacy non-bootstrap addons. I read somewhere recently that they might not make it to 68. I've converted 3 for my own use - I might be wasting my time.

"I read somewhere recently that they might not make it to 68"
You might have seen the "Legacy extensions will not be around forever, and possibly will not even make it to Thunderbird 68." warning in https://thunderbird-webextensions.readt ... egacy.html . I think Jörg Knobloch first stated it.

I got the Minimize On Start and Close extension working correctly in Thunderbird 60.
It looks like there is a bug in Thunderbird 60. The close event doesn't fire and that breaks the minimize on close feature. A workaround is to switch the close event for the DOMWindowClose event.
Close Event
http://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozil ... lose_event
DOMWindowClose Event
http://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/E ... indowClose
Fix:
* install.rdf
Code: Select all
- <em:version>1.3.2.1-signed.1-signed</em:version> + <em:version>1.3.2.2</em:version>
* chrome\content\moscFunc.jsCode: Select all
- <em:maxVersion>3.2a1pre</em:maxVersion> + <em:maxVersion>60.*</em:maxVersion>
* chrome\content\options.xulCode: Select all
- window.addEventListener("close", mosc_480adee0.minimizeOnClose, false); + window.addEventListener("DOMWindowClose", mosc_480adee0.minimizeOnClose, false);

je me suis intéressé à cette application Minimize On Start and Close,
car elle est très pratique pour l'utilisation de Thunderbird en version 60.6.1;
j'ai donc appliqué tes modifications avec précision en utilisant 7zip et Notepad,
jusque là tout va bien.
Mais en exploitation, je constate les choses suivantes:
- pas d'options ( mais c'est pas grave)
- si j'utilise X pour fermer, thunderbird n'est pas minimiser
- il faut utiliser - pour minimiser donc peu d’intérêt.
Merci quand même pour tes travaux.

So far so good.
But in operation, I notice the following things:
- no options (but it does not matter)
- if I use X to close, thunderbird is not minimized
- it must be used to minimize therefore little interest
Thanks anyway for your work.
i.e. Tools > Addons Options > Minimize On Start and Close
Here is how the addon works for me.
Minimize on start - succeeds
Minimize on restart - succeeds
Minimize on click close menu item in file menu - succeeds
Minimize on press ctrl w key - succeeds
Minimize on press esc key - succeeds
Minimize on click X button - fails
As far as I know, there is no solution since the close event doesn't fire correctly.

merci pour le retour.
Pour moi, c'est identique:
Minimize on start - Ok
Minimize on restart - Ok
Minimize on click close menu item in file menu -Ok
Minimize on press ctrl w key - pas essayé
Minimize on press esc key - pas essayé
Minimize on click X button - Non .
C'est une question d'habitude.
Merci beaucoup pour ta communication

Re: Thunderbird 60 / Addon Compatibility
Hello,
J'ai enfin trouvé comment faire fonctionner,
Minimize on click X button = OK.
Après avoir installé l'extension Minimize On Start and Close 1.3.2.2 (avec les modifications de morat)
j'ai aussi installé Minimize To Tray Reanimated 1.4.11
Mais comme le menu n’apparaît plus, je vais dans about config
ligne extensions.mintrayr.minimizeon
et modifier la valeur en mettant 3
0 = Never
1 = When minimizing
2 = Instead of closing
3 = Instead of closing and when minimizing
Et tout est Ok à la fermeture.

AutoUp needs to be completely rewritten for Thunderbird 78.

Thanks for the reply. Is there anything similar that would do the same thing. I miss having to remember to capitalize and this app had my back.

You could use the userChromeJS extension to add the AutoUp listener. (for advanced users only)
userChromeJS by jikamens (compatible with TB 68 and TB 78)
http://addons.thunderbird.net/thunderbird/addon/986610
Instructions:
1. install userChromeJS extension
2. close email client
3. create or edit the userChrome.js file in the chrome folder
4. open email client

Re: Thunderbird 60 / Addon Compatibility
The fix posted in the comment here seems to work too
https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-GB/th ... s/1157224/
Curiously, despite being programmed to deal with accented Latin characters, e.g. change é to É (and being written by a Frenchman) this doesn't work for me.
My guess is that my method of keying them - using AltGr deadkeys on Linux - prevents the event firing.
(Using TB 86.0b2.)
Does it work if you have a local keyboard?

Re: Thunderbird 60 / Addon Compatibility
I have a standard QWERTY keyboard, not a local keyboard.
233 is in the charCode range. A local keyboard should work correctly.
Code: Select all
alert("é".charCodeAt(0)); // 233
