Changes relative to 0.16.3:

Compatibility

  • Now compatible with Thunderbird versions up to 152.
  • #160, #164: Reimplemented the main and formatting bar button state update logic without broadcasters and observers - which apparently no longer work.
  • #162 : No longer using the global content variable.
  • #146 : When composing HTML emails, now setting the direction of both the HTML and BODY element - to improve compatibility with GMail (which was ignoring our direction setting).

Other changes

  • #165 : Brought the behavior of the formatting toolbar direction buttons more in line with that of other buttons on that bar
  • #163 : Brought the behavior of the main toolbar direction buttons more in line with that of other buttons on that bar

Bug fixes

  • #155 : Was loading the preferences dialog from the wrong URL.

Unresolved Thunderbird compatibility issues

  • #102 TB developers broke the main toolbar, and the new "unified toolbar" is difficult to get buttons onto. Toolbars on individual message reading and message composition windows work fine.
  • Thunderbird requires specifying a maximum compatible version field, and would not accept future version numbers. With this fact, plus the monthly major releases of TB, the extension becomes formally incompatible with TB within a month of release, always. Thank the kind folks running the Thunderbird project for this situation.
