In Word, Google docs, Outlook, and so on, there is always an icon you click to change the direction of writing, I don't have it when writing an email using Thunderbird. Please help. Thanks

Until the author of the BiDi add-on updates it for TB 68, or another add-on appears, I recommend you stay with TB 60 if this option is essential.

Shouldn't basic functionality like this be in the composer and not rely on addons?
