724320 - Issue with right click menu for standalone window

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 720420

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Nomis101]

If you open a message in the standalone message window, the right click menu has some issues. First, you see a very very long list. Much longer than if you open the message in a tab. The issues are:

1. If you select a word (or not) and rightclick, you see "Open in Browser" and "Open Link in Browser". But a word is not a link, so clicking on it does absolutely nothing. If you open the message in a tab you don't see that.

2. If you select a word and rightclick, "Copy" is greyed out. So you can't copy the selected word. Its not greyed out if you open the message in a tab.

3. You see "Play", "Mute", "Pause" and "Unmute" in the menu, which is useless.

4. If you select a word while opening the message in a tab, you see in the menu "Search the web for: word". In the standalone window you only get "Search the web".

5. You get a lot of other items which are not working "Save Link as...", "Save image as", "Copy Link Location"...


Its working correctly in TB 10, but its broken in TB 11 and up.
