It did not for me, even after I had replicated your setup (compose in HTML, send in both formats).

Rufus, could you please refresh my memory about the drop downs situation?? The drop down menus are drawn incompletely for things like Master Password request using the SM Modern Theme - the bottom edge is cut off in such a way that even the buttons are incompletely drawn. I was told that the team already had a bug on this so I didn't submit one. This is just one more of a series of UE/UI type bugs that I've been waiting on fixes (some of them for *years* now)...and this is a seemingly pretty simple one, but really annoying from a UE standpoint. I'm holding my most used machines at SM 2.13.2 until this gets fixed. Wanted to visualize your problem, but can't seem to find it. Would you please post the complete sequence of choices that leads you to the problem? Note that I use SM Modern in Windows, not Mac. Maybe different? Probably. This is annoying because of a combination of two problems, really - 1) open SM and navigate to a site that requires input of a stored Password. The drop down to input you Master Password is drawn short. 2) and this is the *REALLY* annoying one - just opening SM and waiting for a random period of time *WITHOUT* navigating to a site requires a stored Password I get a request for my Master Password even though I have my Pref set to ask only when it's first required. I wrote this up as SM bug 724296, and it's been broken since roughly about 1.16. So now I have this to deal with, *and* the dialog is drawn short. ...and as an aside to #2 - I now have a Windows 7 Bootcamp install on my Mac Mini and have been running the Win version of SM there - and even though I have my Pref set to ask for my Master Password the first time it is needed it asks at start of session - every time! So something is really broken as far as invoking the Pref setting is concerned, I should think. You guys could fix this *one* bug alone and make a 200% improvement in the product in terms of UE, IMO. How about one thing at a time?!?! (Mac or Master Password??) Rufus any chance you can set up a test profile *without* using a Master Password then see if your drop-downs work correctly?? Well, the Mac/PC issues are probably related. And yes - I already have a Profile without a Master Password and this doesn't happen with that Profile...because there is no Master Password present to invoke that portion of the code! As I've said, I've been living with this situation since roughly SM 1.16 as far as the random requests for Master Password goes - this recent thing with the short-draw only makes it appear worse. ...and don't get me started about the problems with the Password Manager and not following a link directly. Which it appears that the team had a resolution for from following my bug thread, but *still* no fix! -- - Rufus ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
