Steps to reproduce:

In version 115, the Supernova look is somewhat lacking....

Firstly, I very much appreciate the improvements, but I feel that there is enough to do.

  1. Shortcuts: are missing in very important places, for switching toolbars on and/or off.

  2. Missing graphical settings for toolbars: for a move, for on/off...

  3. The Menu Bar cannot be moved, the same is true for the Unify Toolbar. The Menu bar is usually at the top...

4.a) Accessibility: The Unify Toolbar is not accessible (my blind and partially sighted friends have reported this). This causes them great difficulty!

4.b) Accessibility: Generally speaking, in Thunderbird 115, accessibility has deteriorated a lot, and the previous methods are much harder to implement, whatever they are. For example, sending a new message -if I turn off the Folder pane toolbar- can be done after beating through a lot of menus. It feels as if the new release's functionality hasn't been reviewed at all by an accessibility developer.

Actual results:

I had experienced.

The attached picture shows the status I have achieved. I am clairvoyant.

  1. In about:config

toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets

false > true

  1. Thunderbird profile directory > (new) chrome directory

Step to chrome > new file named userChrome.css.

The contents of the file should be this:

#unifiedToolbar {
visibility: collapse;
}

Restart Thunderbird.

Expected results:

Proposal from

  • Missing hotkeys should be replaced by developers. They are desperately needed by everyone. Hide and display, edit, move here: Unify Toolbar, Menubar, Places bar.

  • Time travel: bring back the old menu and display at least somewhat, or expand the graphical settings considerably in this direction.

  • Accessibility should be rethought, reorganised, improved.

Please keep it one issue per bug report.
You also need to be specific. E.g. missing hotkeys I don't know anything about that. Menu bar on top is bug 1822991
