Okay, major version needs translating! We're fully supporting TB3 now!

If the title says undefined for a tab, don't worry about it. Something didn't save right so the line that sets the title didn't get uncommented.

REupload: I fixed the Thunderbird 2 bug already. This build has Postbox support as well.

I don't find out the difference between "TB3 Tabs" and "TB3 Tabs[NM]" (btw, what is NM for?), excepted that with the second option there is no address bar in the message pane. Is there anything else?

ThunderBrowse will only force links into it's own tabs. There is no surfing in the messagepane (NM means no messagepane).

Okay. I also noticed that there is a "help" sign next to "display what's new..." in options' general tab, but no tooltip is displayed on it.

Please also note that the French locale (to be released soon) is now "fr" instead of "fr-FR", I don't know whether it has been changed by you or the WTS: it has to be updated in the chrome.manifest file too.

Yeah, I think I forgot to take that out while playing around in some beta settings. I've removed it now.

As for the french locale, I'm suprised no one has said this is the new way for doing french translations. I would think Mozilla would have said something.

I confirm the official Mozilla langcode for French is "fr" only since Firefox 1.5

There is also a problem in options window if options descriptions are too long and/or if system font size is too big: the text is not wrapped and a part of the dialog is hidden unless resized. Actually, if the font is really too big it will be impossible on a small screen to enlarge it enough to see the dialog "cancel" and "OK" buttons.

Here is a screenshot of the options dialog with a small font size :

...and then if I choose a bigger one (after closing, then reopening the dialog):
 screenshot_006.png   61.36KB   10 downloads  screenshot_007.png   56.37KB   12 downloads

I took the screenshots with Linux, but the problem has also been reported by Goofy with Windows.

Ugh. I knew this would happen. Hotkeys are odd. They are probably inheriting something incorrectly. Just ignore that one.

I think I have a fix for it, but I'll download the french locales to test.

Also, the directory of just fr will not read locales (even with the changes passed to chrome.manifest).

[MASA]

Alright, I fixed it. I also fixed the tooltips not wrapping like they should be.

[MASA]

I'm going to be releasing the new version this friday (1/8/2010). Just a heads up.

Dutch locale released. Please note that the locale ID has changed from nl-NL to just nl; please modify chrome.manifest accordingly

Hi MASA

The latest version is causing me trouble. The following four strings are the problem.

settings.tabs.contentoverride
Hook ThunderBrowse into TB3 Content Tabs?

settings.tabs.sessionhistory
Persist history for TB3 Session Restore?

settings.tooltip.contenttabs
This will cause ThunderBrowse to hook into the contentTabs tab type. By enabling this, ThunderBrowse will show up in any tab that uses contentTabs. It will be treated as a ThunderBrowse tab.

settings.tooltip.sessionhistory
This will cause session restored tabs to persist the history associated with that tab. WARNING: May cause increase in memory usage.

What is the difference between a normal tab, contentTabs, and TB3 Content Tab?
What do you mean by "Hook into"?

TB3 Content Tabs are tabs that just display a single webpage. They were added in TB3. ThunderBrowse will attach itself to the contentTabs (that's what the single page tabs are called) and allow those tabs to use ThunderBrowse features.

I assume you are having issues with the word persist (yeah, I'll admit that I keep getting tripped up on it). Basically what that feature means is that when Thunderbird closes, you can opt to have all your tabs and all of the tabs history save over. Thus, when you start Thunderbird again, all of your ThunderBrowse tabs will be restored with all their history data.

Hope that helps!

Hi MASA

Thank you for your answer. I have done some more research since my previous post.
The concept 'Content Tabs' is not a part of the user interface in Tb. It is a concept used by the programmers. That is why I was not familiar with it.
