Open message in conversation feature gone in Thunderbird 115

Hello A feature I used to use frequently is gone now since updating to Thunderbird 115. That was the ability, when in a message, to click on 'More' top right and then 'open message in conversation' or something like that - to see all exchanges with a particular sender. I've searched the help database and found people had similar problems - some of the answers seem to be about large accounts - but I'm just not clear on what might be the cause in my case. Advice welcome. Thanks Siobhán

I can select a message from a thread, and press Ctrl+Shift+O to open the message in conversation. Alternatively press Message (Alt-M) - Open in Conversation

Thanks for this - preferred the other way, but guess I'll get used to it :)

The Conversation button can be added to the Header Pane with this add-on:
