Steps to reproduce:

Using Nuvola 1.29 Theme in Thunderbird 24.6.0 with multiple tabs open cannot drag thunderbird to another position on screen...nowhere to grab without maximizing on screen then pointless.


Actual results:

No spot to grab and move thunderbird to another position on screen.


Expected results:

a spot somewhere on title bar to grab and reposition thunderbird on screen.

This is a issue with a 3rd party theme and can't be handled by Mozilla's bugzilla -> invalid.

But I'm the Nuvola author and can help finding a solution. :)

I made Nuvola with a small border on top to use as less empty space as possible and I have always enough space behind the tabs to move the window.

I propose you change the margin on top of the tabs through a userCrome.css rule:

#messengerWindow[chromemargin="0,2,2,2"] > #navigation-toolbox {
  margin-top: -5px;
}

If you don't know what userChrome.css is, please check this link: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Thunderbird/Thunderbird_Configuration_Files

If you have still issues with changing this, please contact me at [e-mail].

And if you don't want a bigger margin on top we can also look to make a gap on the right of the tabs. But more through email.
