I am using Thunderbird on a Windows 10 desktop with Thunderbird ver 115.4.3 32 bit Supernova. Recently, apparently since an update, I have found that formatting my messages is extremely difficult.
- When I want to create a bulleted list, like this one, I previously just hit enter at the end of a sentence to move to a new line, clicked on the bullet icon, and a bullet popped into place one line down and indented. That no longer works. If I try to do it, clicking on the bullet icon just backs we up to the previous line, effectively works like a backspace. To get what I want/expect I have to hit the return, enter a space, then click the bullet icon. That is not only a nuisance, but leaves an unwanted space between the bullet and the first letter of the first word.
- A similar thing happens when I want to enter an emoji. Clicking on the drop-down list and clicking on the smiley face, for example, results in no emoji and effectively enters a backspace.
- I also find that when I come out a the bulleted list, I am now in "paragraph" instead of Body Text and in "variable width" instead of Arial where I was and want to be.
- While I am at it, I find it very annoying that I can't select a font size by number, just larger or smaller with out any concept of how large or small that actually is. This is not a new issue, but is, and has been very annoying. Being able to use "Format Painter" like in MS Office products would be perfect.
- Finally, but unrelated to formatting, I have to agree with many other posters that I find it VERY annoying that the list of messages seems to randomly jump around when moving between mailboxes. [Sorry that is off subject.]
I hope formatting can be put back where it was.
Thanks.
