Cursor jumping back to Subject line while writing e-message

1. 115.3.1 (32-bit) 2. Keyboarding an e-mail message; 3. Continually, and for no apparent reason (!), the cursor jumps back up into the Subject box; 4. Which, of course, does not catch my attention immediately and time is wasted having to remedy that "Thunderbird Treat"; 5. Seems to be one of the What-The-_________s?! that has come with the New, Improved Thunderbird version of not too long ago; 6. NO THANK YOU!

7. Why? 8. How to "back-improve" Thunderbird so it just does what it was originally designed to do: When Subject line information is completed and one moves to the composition box, the cursor stays in the composition box?

Thank you.

Does the same thing happen in safe/troubleshoot mode (hold Shift when launching TB)?

Thank you for the response.

In Safe Mode, thus far with a rather small composition sample, it has not gotten all jumpy with me. Will live with it for a while.

Does this mean I need to always open in Safe Mode now?

Again, thanks. Nels

Launch in normal mode, disable hardware acceleration in Settings/General (bottom of tab), restart TB in normal mode and see how it works. Hardware acceleration is disabled in safe mode.

Again, many thanks. Will do that.

Just noticed, however, as I have been composing, that at least one of the ways the cursor jump is triggered is that, even though I have my Save Draft set for about 5 or 10 seconds, I habitually (regularly) keystroke ALT-F-Save -- and that seems to cause the issue. (Doing that keystroke is a hold-over from my word processing composing.)

So, will go ahead with your suggestion (above).

Again, appreciated.
