userChrome.css doesn't seem to work in the latest Beta release (111).

Matt replied

Not sure if this is the place to ask, but I have a question about the latest Beta that I'm running from snap.

I've installed my userChrome.css file in the same place on this install as on the stable release but it doesn't seem to be picked up (at least none of the color changes have any effect).

Is this being deprecated in the new Thunderbird?

If so, is there another way I can change the colors on new emails etc?

Ta. Peter.

Probably better asked in the beta mailing list. However have you changed the hidden preference to allow userchrome? (required for a couple of years now)

In Thunderbird's config editor ensure the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets preference is set to true.
