Tearing my hair out!!!!
New version this morning. Thunderbird is now double spaced - the most annoying problem at the moment - how can I reduce this to single spacing in the message pane, the folders pane and why is the test so huge in the message itself. It would be useful for TB to show a key to all the names of the parts of the screen.
Firstly, can you please help me to reduce the double spacing. I did try to install the previous version but I don't want to mess things up and I've no idea what a .css file is, so simple instructions please.
Also, I have a specific size of box for when I write a new message but I'm typing away and my words are not seen unless I widen the box!!
Can we have the old version back please - if it ain't broke............

If you have any addons, I suggest disabling them, as some may cause the double-spacing. I had that experience.

Click settings>composition and untick the 'use paragraph...' setting to eliminate double spacing. For text size, I am unsure of what you are seeing as that is a rare complaint. You might experiment with View>Font size and View>Density to see if either of those options help.
Would someone please help me - how can I get single spacing back again in the message pane. All I have now is less than 2" to read my messages. I'm going to have to consider an alternative as this is disrupting my work - I've spent hours on this today as any instructions I have read have not been appropriate to my program i.e. Tools/Options - not got that!

I'm going to have to revert to a previous version. My present version is 115.1.0 (64 bit) but how do I find out the number of the previous version? I've seen a huge list but which one please?
I am puzzled. My suggestion did not specify tools>options. Unticking that settings is the normal solution.

The box "use paragraph......." is not ticked - I've tried this. It's the double spacing that I need to change
Well Well............ I tried the View - Font size - nope, then tried View - Density and that seems to have cracked it - for the moment anyway - thanks so much David.
Can I ask another question please? My message box is a certain width but I now have to increase the width or I can't see what I'm typing before the text wraps around to the next line. Why has this changed?
And another......... I cannot decrease the height of the "Messages In" pane to give me more space to see the message itself - used to be able to do that.
At least some progress - thanks!
