If using Sort by > Threaded :

Then thread pane is missing the connecting lines. 

Problem - This can make it difficult to figure out indentation with bare eye for deep and long threads.

If possible perhaps set up as a user preference. Enable/disable converation hierarchy lines.

I like the idea.  Even if TB 102 didn't have them, I was able to expand the lines with CSS.

I like the idea too! 

My CSS didn't work for me!

Any attempt now that I've seen also does not work in 128.

I did get this code and tried it, no go.  But the user said it worked on his MAC.  You can give it a try in the userChrome.css, obviously use any color that fits you theme.

#threadTree treechildren::-moz-tree-line { visibility: visible !important; }
#threadTree treechildren::-moz-tree-line(selected, focus) { border-color: #FFFFFF !important; }

Man, I was looking if I was the only one that missed this.. Is it possible to get it back, I wonder why it was removed in the first place?!

Man, I tried the CSS file..but it's not working anymore. 
I'm on 140.1 and ChatGPT was suggesting using the HTML classes instead..still no go.

Has anyone managed to make this work?

As this is just a forum for connecting with others and discussing ideas, as I understand it, then we're just using oxygen.   There are bug reports, old ones, and even these comments are closing in on a year old.
