Dear people,
problem: threaded view is enabled > when the child has a new message, the top message is not bold but only underlined.
Without opening the thread, I wouldn't know that there are messages in the thread.
Example:
Actual default style:
In the view, it appears like this
> Thread top message
v Thread top message
- Old Child message
- New Child message
The style I prefer:
In the view, it appears like this
> Thread top message
v Thread top message
- Old Child message
- New Child message
(see also screenshots for that).
As the solution in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1265223 did not work anymore (since starting with Thunderbird 115+ the message list was rewritten from XUL treechildren to a HTML-based table view) I wanted to post another solution if someone stumbles upon this problem via google.
1) Enable customized stylesheet support:
a) ☰ Menu → Settings → search for config → Config Editor
b) Search for "toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets" and enabled (set it to value "true") it by double clicking
2) Edit the Thunderbird styles by adding your customized stylesheet:
1) Help → Troubleshooting Information → Profile Folder → Open Folder
2) Inside that folder, create chrome/userChrome.css (folder name and filename must exactly named like this; pay attention to not create a userChrome.css.txt by accident when using an editor)
3) Put this into the userChrome.css:
/* Collapsed thread that contains unread messages → bold */
tr[is="thread-row"].children[aria-expanded="false"][data-properties~="hasUnread"]
.subject-line span {
font-weight: 700 !important;
color: #000000 !important;
}
/* Keep correct color when selected */
tr[is="thread-row"].children[aria-expanded="false"][data-properties~="hasUnread"][aria-selected="true"]
.subject-line span {
color: var(--listbox-selected-text-color) !important;
}
4) Save the file and restart Thunderbird
