Thunderbird support #29
Comments
Yes, I would love to see this one in TB either! Although I have other extensions like gnome night switcher on linux which all provide day light support etc, I only need all my applications to change using my keyboard shortcut when I go in lit places. So far, I had to stick with "system theme". |
Hi guys, thanks for the feedback. I'll be straight up about this -- I don't use Thunderbird (although maybe I should) and I'm a slave to Gmail at the moment. So I don't have any intention of bringing the extension anytime in the near future. I'll leave the issue open. It's something I (or someone else) could explore in the "farther" future. |
Unfortunate, but I do highly recommend trying out Thunderbird for your email(s), instead of gmail, outlook, ... (as a mail client). It's much faster (offline) and has advanced filtering functionality (just like gmail). It's overwhelming at first though and doesn't look "pretty", but you'll start to appreciate most decisions over time while you find out about all functionality. Yes you'll still be a slave to gmail when using gmail addresses, but less :p That way, you can start feeling the need for TB support; heheh ;) I may try out creating extensions for TB/FF myself and porting yours to TB eventually, but I have little experience and for now quite little time. Edit: I dropped the port of the extension from my todo list, as I'm currently using gnome's adwaita theming and thus simply relying on Thunderbird's system theme to integrate it as closely as possible. |
Hi there, it seems that the extension already works fine in Thunderbird 102.6.1, at least the "Manual times" setting. You can install it manually:
Then you can configure exactly like you would on Firefox. |
I didn't even test the other options, but I believe the OS based theme listener didn't work with version 91 (as that's what Ubuntu 20.04's apt offered, but well that is updated to 102 because of security issues). I was waiting however for a fix to the OS theme's listener fix (#31), to find out what's happening differently. I didn't know you could install them permanently though, but it makes sense since Firefox allows it as well. Perhaps it's possible to drag and install them as well; thanks! Update: I installed both 1.4.1 and 1.4.0 from the add-ons website to check if the system's dark mode preference was matched, but the extensions of both versions didn't change. Also, if you have AutomaticDark installed, it's still possible to download the extension by right clicking the button and choosing "Save link as ...". |
For me it works well in Thunderbird 115.5.1 on Linux. However, Thunderbird does not open a permission dialog popup to allow the location permissions. It would be great if besides access to location you could also enter Lat-Lon-Values to calculate the sunrise and sunset times, respectively. |
Hi, thanks for your work! |
This extension works very well in Firefox, and it would be nice to see this extension in Thunderbird, too.
Although #13 mentions that the "System theme" in Thunderbird can switch between light and dark themes, it only works if the operating system has this feature. Not all operating systems have light/dark themes or automatic switching. This extension also offers more options, including theme selection and custom times.
