in thunderbird lightening when the todo list is full at the bottom left corder (ie about 8-10 todo item) then there is no way to add more new tasks. if i simple click on a caledar day i can't change the type from event from event to task (ie. the selection is grey). in the todo list i can't click since then i only select one of the old task so i can only change it. so anybody even use this? nobody has ever try to create more than 8-10 task? the only way to rise the hight of that part of the windows and double click on the not used area.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
can't add more task

Expected Results:  
wanna add more task
You can use the menu command 'File -> New -> Task'.
You can use the toolbar button available from 'View -> Toolbars -> Customize'.
ok. but wouldn't be easier to allow to change the type of the newly created entry? ie choose among event and task. why there is a select item for this if it's always grey?

Because that is not yet working properly (Bug 277731).
This bug is either INVALID or a DUPLICATE of bug 277731.

No, I think what should be done here, is to add a scrollbar as soon as the todo list fills up. This makes sure to always have white space at the bottom. (and is implemented in Sunbird, by the way)

Fixed by the checkin for Bug 372830.
Now you can also use the context menu or double click the last empty row.
