hard time seeing
Hello,
I really enjoy using Thunderbird as my email program; I have been using it for years. I currently use Thunderbird 102.5.0. However, my eyesight has gotten poorer after my stroke, and I am having trouble differentiating unread emails from read emails. I was wondering if there was a way that I could change the bold for unread/unbold for read to something else, like different colors or fonts for read vs. unread, or maybe making the green unread dot a different, more bold color or size?
Thank you,
George Hutton

In config editor set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true to allow use of the chrome folder. In profile, add folder named chrome (lower-case) In folder, add file named userChrome.css (case-sensitive) In that simple text file, add the following: I set the colors a bit wild, with blue font and yellow background, so please change to your preference. Same goes for size. after saving, thunderbird must be closed and restarted to see changes. Config editor is at settings>general and scroll to bottom. If you want special colors and know the HTML number, replace the blue and yellow with numbers preceded with # (e.g.l, #0000ff is blue, #FF0000 is red. More colors available by web search for html color chart THE FOLLOWING CODE is for userChrome.css:
/* Make unread messages blue text and italic */
treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(unread) {
color: blue !important;
font-style: italic !important;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold !important; background-color: yellow !important;
}
