[SOLVED] Want to remove this toolbar, don't see how

Post by NginUS »

In the Tasks tab, there's a toolbar that says "New Task" "Click here to add a new task" & "Filter tasks" all in a row. I'd like to just use the "New Task" button above it on the left & be rid of that whole row. Just don't see how.

Hoping someone here can let me know. If it's impossible, no biggie. Just figured I'd ask.

Thanks in advance.

Try this:

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userChrome.css */

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

#task-addition-box {
  display: none !important;
}

@DN123ABC

Can you test the above style?

@NginUS

It works here.

Try this:

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userChrome.css */

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

#task-addition-box {
  background-color: pink !important;
}
Still no effect?

Thunderbird 60.3.0
Windows 7 SP1 32-bit

Are you using a complete theme or an addon to change Thunderbirds appearance like the CustomizeMyBird addon?

The element id is in the default theme for Linux.

I can't test that today. I am not going crazy to do this, but want to check it out in the future. Thanks.

None of the above. Literally never touched the theme. Whatever it installs with initially is what it is.

If you are trying to change something in Lightning, which is in Thunderbird. Why does your screenshot show your userChrome.css file in the ~/.mozilla/chrome folder and not the ~/.thunderbird/(profilename)/chrome folder?
chrome/userChrome.css is a file in the profile folder.

Thanks for your reply, & sorry for the delay.

Something's not matching up as expected.

When I look for the profile directory where you mentioned [0], I only see one that appears to be a profile- a machine-generated directory.

Entering that [1] shows there to be no userChrome.css file, or chrome directory- not sure if I should create them...

That did it.

I created the /chrome/userChrome.css file there, & put the first suggestion into it:

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userChrome.css */

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

#task-addition-box {
  display: none !important;
}
And now that awful thing is gone.
Thanks!
