When editing events in calendar, the window does'n't expand far enough to click the "edit" button, by default.
I installed the beta version of Thunderbird without realizing it's incredibly difficult to switch back to stable, so I'm stuck with beta. In beta, can someone explain the reasoning to me behind why calendar shows a view-only window when double clicking an event title instead of going directly to the editing window? It was so much easier to edit events before:
double click the title > start editing
Now, in beta, both ways to edit an event require extra steps:
right click title > click edit > scale the window larger > start editing or
double click title > scale the window larger > click edit > scale the window larger again > start editing.
It doesn't make any sense. I can't think of any reason for having two separate window states for an event - you don't need a display view and an edit view, because they both display the same information. Just have it open directly into the edit view like it used to.
I made a video to attach but it doesn't allow videos. Let me know if I can provide something else instead.

From Thunderbird https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/102.2.2/releasenotes 102.2.2
Setting added to change Calendar event double-click action to open Edit Event dialog rather than view only; Set calendar.events.defaultActionEdit to true
You'll find Settings by clicking on the hamburger menu ≡ at the top right of the Thunderbird interface Click on Settings The Settings tab will open General level and at the bottom, you'll find, Configuration Editor... Click on Configuration Editor... The tab, Advanced Preferences, will open Search for a preference name calendar.events.defaultActionEdit To modify a Boolean preference (with a value of true or false), click on the Invert button to set its value to true
