Re: FF 3.5x performance + Once Ya' go to FF 'n' TB
RE: I don't care if the components of the suite run as separate processes / applications. In fact that's the only nice thing about the Tb/Fb combo - when a page in the browser is running a heavy Flash applet it doesn't freeze the other components, e.g. the Mail. Actually, Firefox 3.5x is mono-threaded in a few places, where it WILL stall and stop / almost stop many other processes while those inner threads are operating, thus now and then (not constantly) slowing any PC OS down -- Win, Mac, Linux -- it is these very few internal FF areas that do NOT compare as favorably as FF 3.5x could when compared to exact-same tests against Google's Chrome and the very few other Gecko and other related-or-not browser engines. It appears that FF 3.5x tabs are multi-threaded for performance, but the entirety of FF 3.5x is NOT TOTALLY as high-performance as many of us thought it could or would be. However, it appears that these deficiencies will be addressed in the upcoming FF 3.6, but we must wait to be certain of that. Also, it appears that once Thunderbird 3 finally appears, parts of FF 3.5x, and possibly even SeaMonkey 2, will operate better when called upon to I/O data and background information with TBird 3. Not to take anything away from the mostly fine points of SM 2, but SM 2 has a little ways to go, hopefully mostly ironing out what we all hope would be less than major problem points for the overworked SM programmer.

I prefer the suite as it is sharing my settings and preferences among its components - I don't want to maintain and synchronize the same settings among different applications the suite has as components. That's enough for me to stick with the suite, but I also like the more verbose SeaMonkey UI loaded with some features I miss from Firefox - the Forms tab in the Page Info removed in Firefox 3, for example.

SM 2.0 installation finished normally (apparently) but when I started SM 2.0 I noticed that much of my stored mail is missing. The SM 2.0 installer should check the size of the existing profile and warn or terminate if there is insufficient disk space to make the copy. Robert Robert, are you saying that you had over 3GB of mail in the one profile? SM 2.0 only imports one profile, the default profile, into the new version, so if your 3GB was spread over several profiles, you still have some migrating to do.

Classic look for Seamonkey 2.0?
Hi, Thankyou for your replies. Yes , I did already have the default theme , which is the closest to 1.18 and Netscape 7.2., but still a little different. Is there any chance a Classic Theme could be added which would give the option to keep the same exact look.

With that, when you attempt to launch SeaMonkey 2.0, it will see that there is a SeaMonkey already running and just open a new window from that. Try shutting down SeaMonkey, including the quick launch, then verify there is no seamonkey mentioned in the task manager under the Processes tab (make sure you 'show processes from all users', if available). Once they're all gone, try launching SeaMonkey 2.0 and see what happens. If this is the issue, note that without some extra effort, you can't run both versions at the same time. If you want to migrate to 2.0, you'll want to disable the Quick Launch feature in the 1.1 version, so it won't keep starting SeaMonkey 1.1 when you boot/log-in to your machine.

SM 2.0: No Home Button on Personal Toolbar
The proposed solution to this seems to be that you're supposed to customize the tool bar, using the button from your personal toolbar. Well, I don't have a home button on my personal toolbar. Probably because I turned it off when I installed Home Button on SM 1.1.x. And when I imported my settings from 1.1 the absence of the home button went with it. I don't know why the concept of having a prominently displayed Home button is a foreign concept to the Mozilla folks. It kind reminds me having to re-map the [backspace] key work every time you installed Emacs: Something irritating you have to do immediately after every install and before you can do anything else. Do people really not use a Home button? I'm pretty sure that if you put it right up there on the navigation toolbar by default, only an insignificant number of users would complain about not being able to disable it (the same number of people who would like to disable the Back button). -sw (still wondering why nothing in Windows has the keyboard equivalent of Emacs [Esc-D]) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Bill Davidsen wrote: Jens Hatlak wrote: Arnie Goetchius wrote: The procedure for composing in HTML for a single message (as opposed to all messages) appears to have changed from 1.1.x. However, the 2.0 Help file still refers to 1.1.x procedures as follows: If while composing a message you realize that one or more recipients may not be able to receive HTML-formatted mail, you can easily convert the message to a different format when you click Send: 1. In the Compose window, open the Options menu and choose Format. 2. Select the format you want to use for sending the message from the submenu: ===snipped That procedure no longer applies to 2.0 as there is no Format in the Options menu in 2.0. Wrong. The part you quoted from Help refers to the case where you are composing an HTML mail. In that case there *is* a Format option under Options and it allows you to change the format of the outgoing mail. It has been like that in SM 1.0, SM 1.1 and it is still like that in SM 2.0. Yes, that misfeature is still with us. People who start in HTML are allowed to change, people who get started in text get to start all over, the option to correct the format is not offered in text mode, and sending in text mode to someone marked as wants HTML doesn't get a useful box to pop up and let you decide. To compose in HTML for a single message, click on the down arrow to the right of the Compose icon. There you will be given the option of composing the current message in plain text or HTML Correct, this option is new. However, it does not replace the other option, it is just a new alternative. Greetings, Jens The way its setup now in SM2 if you have set to Plain Text in a newsgroup you can only post in Plain Text. If you set for HTML you can post either in HTML or Plaintext you'd switch just by holding Shift key down (Mac) to swap to other format. In Email you swap one to the other regardless of which format you in.

Re: SM 2.0: No Home Button on Personal Toolbar
On 11/16/2009 2:27 PM, Sqwertz wrote: The proposed solution to this seems to be that you're supposed to customize the tool bar, using the button from your personal toolbar. Well, I don't have a home button on my personal toolbar. Probably because I turned it off when I installed Home Button on SM 1.1.x. And when I imported my settings from 1.1 the absence of the home button went with it. I don't know why the concept of having a prominently displayed Home button is a foreign concept to the Mozilla folks. It kind reminds me having to re-map the [backspace] key work every time you installed Emacs: Something irritating you have to do immediately after every install and before you can do anything else. Do people really not use a Home button? I'm pretty sure that if you put it right up there on the navigation toolbar by default, only an insignificant number of users would complain about not being able to disable it (the same number of people who would like to disable the Back button). Just try the following. No, you don't have to leave it that way. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [View Show/Hide Personal Toolbar]. Then on the Navigation toolbar, right-click on an active button or on the SeaMonkey throbber icon; and then select Customize from the pull-down context menu. Do you see a house icon either on the Personal toolbar or in the Customize Toolbar window? Is so, you can drag it onto the Navigation toolbar and drop it wherever you want it there. Then select the Done button on the Customize Toolbar window. Return to the menu bar and again select [View Show/Hide Personal Toolbar] to hide the Personal Toolbar. Note: You cannot drag and drop a button unless the Customize Toolbar window is open. As for me, I also don't use the Personal toolbar. I do use the PrefBar extension and have a Home button its toolbar. However, after researching your question, I might move the Home button from the Personal toolbar to the Navigation bar, which has much more room than the PrefBar toolbar. -- David E.

I can open in a new window, (which I never do) by double clicking it, just as 1.1.18 always behaved.

Several times now while reading a email message in SM 2.0 either the message display pane or the pane where read and unread messages are listed and on some occasions both places just go blank. To correct this I have to either click on another message then go back to the one I was reading or click on another subfolder in the account folder pane then back to that folder. If that made any sense could someone tell me what causes it and how to stop it from happening or is this just the nature of the email client of 2.0?

I have become very fond of the Venerable Modern theme. I also hove a fondness for KaiRo's Star Trek theme, though I admit it is a bit of an acquired taste.

Re: SM 2.0: No Home Button on Personal Toolbar

Well, I don't have a home button on my personal toolbar. Probably because I turned it off when I installed Home Button on SM 1.1.x. And when I imported my settings from 1.1 the absence of the home button went with it. I don't know why the concept of having a prominently displayed Home button is a foreign concept to the Mozilla folks. It kind reminds me having to re-map the [backspace] key work every time you installed Emacs: Something irritating you have to do immediately after every install and before you can do anything else. Do people really not use a Home button? I'm pretty sure that if you put it right up there on the navigation toolbar by default, only an insignificant number of users would complain about not being able to disable it (the same number of people who would like to disable the Back button). -sw (still wondering why nothing in Windows has the keyboard equivalent of Emacs [Esc-D]) To get the home button try this: Edit Preferences Highlight Navigator You should now see buttons you want to see in the toolbars. Put a check by Home then OK it. That's for SeaMonkey 1.1.18, not for 2.0. In 2.0, there is no Navigator to highlight. Only the Navigation toolbar has checkboxes, and they're only for Search and Go. -- David E.
