120812 - Save layout of mail composition window

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: Composition, enhancement)

Description

[Luciano Giustini]

When you resize the ideal horizontal rule of the composition window
------------
mail heads
-------- <==this 
text

-------------

in example trying to push it up (in order to give more space to the text box),
it's ok at the moment. 
But the next time, the composition window reload with default rules disposition.
It doesn't remember the modifies you did.

Reporter, please use Bugzilla helper in the future when filing a bug report.

What build does this happen in?
Is it still happening in a current build?

Ok, language barrier is making it hard for me to be sure what this bug is about,
will attempt to clarify...

Attachment: Image describing parts of new mail window

Luciano, have a look at the attached picture.

Do you mean that you want the following:
1) move the bar so that areas A and B have certain sizes, and
2) have the sizes of areas A and B saved and used for subsequent new emails

Currently (2002080218 WinME) when sending an email, the size and position of
the window are used in subsequent new emails, but not the sizes of areas A and
B.

If you want to remember the sizes of areas A and B, I think this is an
enhancement bug.

Yes, I meant the possibility to save the bars' position . Once you've resized ,
in the next email the positions return to default.

This confirms that, based on
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=93854&action=view, the reporter
wants the sizes of areas A and B saved and used for subsequent new emails.

Will make this an enhancement request, changing summary
