To alleviate the problem, I made 2 changes: 1 - I shortened the label to "SmartTemplates" then, in icon+text mode, there will be only the icon shown, which should be less disruptive for users who don't want to use this button. This is a workaround until there is a way to hide the button permanently using the API or Thunderbird Core UI. Preview version below - To do: localise the label into all 21 languages. smartTemplate-fx-4.1.1pre18.zip To install in Thunderbird, download the zip file above, then drag the file into Thunderbird Add-ons Manager. Do not extract the files inside or it will not install! |
One more version. I forgot to hide the command "Hide Label" when the button is in "Text only" mode. In that case of course it makes no sense to not show the label text because we will then end up with an empty button (no icon, no text!) To see the change, you may have to restart Thunderbird, as it caches style sheets, just like Firefox. smartTemplate-fx-4.1.1pre19.zip To install this in Thunderbird, download the zip file above, then drag the file into Thunderbird Add-ons Manager. Do not extract the files inside or it will not install! |
I tested the pre19 update with 115.2.2 (64-bit) on W10 Pro 22H2. It installed perfectly and worked perfectly! The shortened button text is a nice improvement. I tested it with all three Button Style settings: only Icons, only Text, both Icons and Text. With only-Text and only-Icons, the Hide Label menu pick correctly does not appear. With the Icons and Text setting, the Hide Label menu pick does appear and works correctly both checked and unchecked. Great job on the workaround! Regards, Joe |
Ok, I will translate and land this in the next official version! Will close the issue once it is published to addons.thunderbird.net |
Excellent! Very much appreciated! |
Implemented in 4.2.1, published 25/09/2023 |
At the moment the header button for replying / forwarding via external templates takes a lot of space.
There is currently no way to remove it or move it to the overflow button [More ⯆] via an API call.
Therefore I raised Bug 1851172. In the meantime I will shorten the label to only read "SmartTemplates"
