Template Files - Toolbar buttons missing

[jonaskohl]

When trying to add a template file, the toolbar buttons for adding, removing or moving a template file are missing. (See attached screenshot)

OK, looks weird - what version of Thunderbird and SmartTemplates are you using? What OS?
What happens if you try to increase the window height by dragging down on the bottom right corner?

I'm using Thunderbird 78.13.0 on Windows 10 2004 and SmartTemplates 3.6.

It looks the same when dragging down the window.

After a bit of digging with the DevTools, I found this CSS rule (added at xul.css:54 by ThunderBird apparently):

*|*:root[chromehidden~="menubar"] .chromeclass-menubar, *|*:root[chromehidden~="directories"] .chromeclass-directories, *|*:root[chromehidden~="status"] .chromeclass-status, *|*:root[chromehidden~="extrachrome"] .chromeclass-extrachrome, *|*:root[chromehidden~="location"] .chromeclass-location, *|*:root[chromehidden~="location"][chromehidden~="toolbar"] .chromeclass-toolbar, *|*:root[chromehidden~="toolbar"] .chromeclass-toolbar-additional {
    display: none;
}

So after adding this CSS rule:

.templateList > toolbarbutton {
    display: inline;
}

the buttons once again display as normal.

So I think this has to be added to the add-on's CSS file for it to fix it.

So I haven'#t see this rule here on Windows 7; I would believe it is this part
|:root[chromehidden~="toolbar"] .chromeclass-toolbar-additional {
display: none;
}

as the buttons have the class "chromeclass-toolbar-additional". I wonder if this is specific to Windows 10, that would be a bad bug.

I also tested on my recording PC / DAW which is win10 64bit but the toolbar was visible. Probably no harm in adding the rule anyway. The display value for the buttons here reads as "-moz-box"...

I added

#fileTemplateToolbar.templateList > toolbarbutton.chromeclass-toolbar-additional {
  display: inline-block;
}

I wasn't quite sure whether the descendant selector added enough specificity. Can you check this version?
