22 versions

Be careful with old versions!

These versions are displayed for reference and testing purposes. You should always use the latest version of an add-on.

Version 1.16 455.3 KiB Works with Thunderbird 61.0 - 73.0

Version 1.6

  • Updated color picker controls for Thunderbird 68.
  • Updated all numeral textboxes for Thunderbird 68.
  • Added Swedish / Italian translations for 'Fire-orange' flavour.
  • Experimental: Added the "Rise of Tools" functionality (partly). This will elevate the main toolbar above the tab bar. however the toolbar is not hidden on calendar tabs, so this is kind of unfinished work.

Note: I still plan to add a routine that automatically unpacks all avatar graphics automatically - at the moment you will have to unpack them from the Add-on manually.

    • Especially for Thunderbird, you can now specify a space for dragging the window if you are using the option "show menu in titlebar"
    • Added lop-left bookmark feature, use it to store your most important web pages, single messages (Tb) and mail folders (Tb). This is a handy and quick way of keeping only the most important bookmarks within easy reach without wasting screen space.

      Just activate the option in advanced, and enter a label of your choice. The new menu will show up beside the "File" menu. Navigate to any web-page or open an email, open a single message tab or click on a Folder, and then choose "Add current Item" Thunderbird) or "Add current Webpage" (Firefox).

      This is a space-saver for when you do not want to permanently show your Personal Bookmark Toolbar. Ultimately this will unclutter your Mozilla experience!
