Can't review message body when composing a message in Thunderbird #1534
Comments
Comment 1 by jteh on 2011-05-31 03:51 What sort of stuff are you doing in the message body field? Are you just typing or are you adding formatting, etc.? Do you have a signature configured? How are you reviewing? Are you using NVDA's review cursor or the system cursor? |

Comment 4 by jteh on 2011-05-31 06:45 Even if this works, I'd still like to know what is causing the issue. Can you test to see if it behaves correctly with the signature disabled? The log you provided doesn't tell me too much unfortunately. |

Anyone who is using thunderbird? CC @LeonarddeR |
NVDA's handling of Mozilla rich text editing (as used by the HTML composer) was completely refactored in #1668. Issues like this should be fixed as a result. Closing, but please comment if the problem persists. |

In mozilla thunderbird 3.1.1 when you go to send a new email after putting in youremail address and subject which you can review, once you tabl down to where you type your meial and typed it out, when you go to review it it just says blank like there is nothing there, how ever if you move the mouse across it it will say what it is you have typed. Now and again it may let you review it in this section, mostly not.I am useing windows 7 64 bit and the latest snapshot 4362, I think it is. You will see what I mean in this area.
