1773257 - Message Pane and Emails list (column) horizonal resizing when changing messages

Status: NEW

(Thunderbird :: Message Reader UI, defect)

Description

[urbanofreitas]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:101.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/101.0

Steps to reproduce:

Activated the Layout: Vertical
Navigated through my messages/emails

Actual results:

When I move through my messages, the "Message Pane" size and "Emails List" is re-sized horizontally.

This is annoying, because it seems Thunderbird is giving an UI error.

Expected results:

As in previous Thunderbird versions, the "Message Pane" size and "Emails List", horizontal size should remain constant.

I see this when the message subject wraps in the message header of the message reader pane.
Does that describe your problem?
And this doesn't happen in version 91?

Attachment: compare - non-wrapped subject

Comment 3

Attachment: compare - wrapped subject

Or perhaps it only depends on subject length, not wrapping specifically?

I had the probably the same issue, after migrating my 91 profile to 102 Beta.

The described behaviour was fixed, after clicking once on a column header in thread pane.

I agree with that finding.

It was very confusing for now though and should be fixed as many "simple" users will complain about it I think.
