Cannot create xnote from context menu (exception)

Open cyberbeat opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

I right-click on a message, click "add xnote" (in german "Notiz einfügen"), but then nothing happens, and the message-selection jumps to previous message.

This is the exception from the log:

Thunderbird Version 91, XNote 3.3.2, Using threaded message-view (but the affected message has no thread), sorting mails from newest (top) to oldest (bottom).

I observe this problem today, whereas I could create notes with no problem until last week.

To know the Thunderbird version I have to call Help / About twice, as nothing happens the first time.

The extension works nice on a new profile, any idea what happened on the usual profile?

Thunderbird 115.6.0 Microsoft Windows [version 10.0.22621.2861] Windows 11 - 22H2 Eset Internet Security 17.0.16.0

I ignore whether you did anything, but after a few days the extension works good again. Help / About shows the version number at first call. Thanks.

@cyberbeat : Does this persist with 4.3.38?

Hello, I created notes last week from the context menu of the mails list (the style-sheet would have deserved a little modification but that is no big problem), but now as I want to verify to answer you, what I see is that Xnote++ is not compatible with Thunderbird 134.0. The versions evolve very quickly : today I had to regress from version 136 to 134, because of an incompatibility with QuickFolders, and by the way "Quote Colors and Collapse" was not taken care of either. This is a weak point of Thunderbird indeed.

I am unable to tell you the installed version of XNote++, but my applications were updated with UniGetUni and Thunderbird updated the extensions automatically, so it must have been the last one at that moment. Of course now I inactivated the updates for Thunderbird. The versions of the incompatible extensions are not displayed, sorry.

(of course I cannot tell you for cyberbeat, I thought it could have an interest to have an update about the landscape in Windows)

March 12th, 10pm Oh you were quick, XNote is now compatible with Thunderbird 134. I avoid a new message, as you are waiting for Cyberbeat's answer.
