How do I get back the old layout and font size on Thunderbird? (win10)
Hi, I got the (unwanted) Update on Thunderbird 115.2.2 (64-Bit).
I use a notebook 14" with full HD. With the new update I have trouble reading the texts in Thunderbird, mail, etc. because of the font size & layout. I wear glasses and I'm 50+ ......
HOW CAN I GET BACK THE OLD LAYOUT AND TEXT SIZE ??
I'm really pissed :(
Thanks, Martin

What is your screen resolution and DPI? Are you using View > Layout > Classic? View > Density > Compact?
My recommendation on a 14" laptop is
- View > Layout > Vertical
- Change message list to Cards View (the icon just to the right of "Quick Filter" at the top of message list.
On a macbook and reduced windows size at roughly 14" diagonal, looks like so...
We have determined that some users somehow have a non-default value for hidden preferences ...
Check the Config Editor for this settings:
- Settings > General
- scroll to bottom and click on 'Config Editor' button
It opens in a new tab
- In top search type: pixels
- look for this line : layout.css.devPixelsPerPx
- default is a negative number -1.0
It should not be in bold text, if bold text then it has been altered.
- If you have anything else in that setting use the arrow icon on far right - click on it and the default is reset.
Another value to check is mail.uifontsize, what value do you see?
