 |
|
When I'm browsing through my e-mail messages in Thunderbird, I like to have alternating lines (with differently coloured backgrounds) in the message list pane. Some themes have this, but it's easy to set up with any theme. I use the default theme, which follows the gtk2-theme (Clearlooks for me).
Put the following in userChrome.css (in ~/.thunderbird/<something>.default/chrome):
| Code: | @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(odd) { background-color: #F6F6F6 !important; }
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(even) { background-color: #FFFFFF !important; }
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(odd, selected) { background-color: -moz-Dialog !important; }
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(even, selected) { background-color: -moz-Dialog !important; }
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(odd, selected, focus) { background-color: Highlight !important; }
treechildren:-moz-tree-row(even, selected, focus) { background-color: Highlight !important; } |
You may want to edit the colors to match your setup. I'm not an expert, so this may be improved upon, but it works for me (ymmv).

Good stuff!! Thanks for this.
I'd like to have this feature only in the message pane, not in the folder pane. Do you know how I could do this?
Thanks |

Thanks...  And no, I don't know how to do that. I like it in the message pane and in the contacts list, but - like you - I would rather not have it in the folder pane. Any suggestions are welcome!
