Re: 2.2 scrolling and right click issues
I was wrong earlier -- 2.1 does not seem to work. I had to go back to 2.0.14 to get scrolling (and tab launching) back. As for tab launching, is there a technical reason it is gone?

SM 2.2 : Shift Middle-click on link behavior reversed
Hello, I just upgraded from 2.0.14 to 2.2 and now when I middle click on a link, the tab is opened but not focused, while if I maintain Shift pressed as I middle click it instantly gives focus to the new tab. This use to be the opposite in 2.0.14, that is, I had to maintain Shift pressed if I wanted the tab to be opened but not focused. How can I get the old behavior back?

Re: Question: How to set SM for Mail, but FF for Browser?
GrantH wrote: I'm using the latest of both, but there are a number of things I prefer on FF to how SM's browser works. I've not been able to find (or possibly recognize) either an internal setting in SM to set FF as my browser of choice (it *is* set as my default within FF, and I have *not* set SM as my default browser), or a plugin (similar to the IE Tab ones) to force this behavior. If it is possible, where and how do I make the change? If it is not possible, what is the correct location to request such an improvement? I've tried T-Bird, and while it's OK, I like SM better, so would like to stay with it. Grant Grant, for a long time it was my belief that as SeaMonkey has a browser with-in itself, you had no option but to use the SeaMonkey browser, but then someone here provided a SeaMonkey prefs hack which did allow you to use any browser you wanted when clicking on a link in the SeaMonkey e-mail component.

[Linux] Updating 2.0.14 to 2.2 a disaster for the bookmarks.

Horror When 2.2 openend I didn't have my bookmarks any more. I looked in the forum here and saw an advice to look to try to rename places.sqlite.corrupt to places.sqlite. I had 2 such files ...corrupt and ...corrupt1. The places.sqlite and ..corrupt and ..corrupt1 are all 20MB. So supposingly containing my bookmarks. After such a rename I still didn't have my bookmarks. But going in the manage bookmarks, I found the structure of my bookmarks back, but apparently the urls aren't accesible as clicking on a bookmark doesn't open the bookmark. So this is really a disaster.

Upgrading to SM 2.2. causes loss of function in vital accessory
I tonight installed SM 2.2. With my browser I have long used an integrated password,etc.-remembering tool, RoboForm Pro. Tonight one box that appeared unbidden on my screen was headed [JavaScript Application]. The first line read, 'The Adapter supports only seamonkey ver. 2.0 to 2.9.*.' Something wrong there, no? The latest SM version is 2.2, right? Which is what I just installed. The next line read, 'You are using seamonkey ver. rv:5.0'. Huh? The last line read, 'Click Ok to go to web page that explains how to install RoboForm Adapter as extension.' Well, I clicked on Ok as instructed. Result: a blank page. Near the top of my screen is a RoboForm line which now reads just 'Unsupported browser'. Further frustration. Looks like I can't go back to SM 2.0.18 (I think it was) which is what I was using before. The 'Known Issues' note for SM 2.2 is headed (in bold), 'Data loss warning' and continues: 'If you use a profile with this or any later version and then try to go back to SeaMonkey 2.0, SeaMonkey will rename your history file to places.sqlite.corrupt and create a new places.qlite file, effectively resetting your browsing history.' Well, I don't pretend to understand all of that, but it does seem to be saying that I will lose data if I try to restore the SM version I had before. No? Please, any helpful comments?

I want my old Seamonkey back
Please how do I get my old version of SeaMonkey back!? I updated to v2.2 in good faith. The new version is a nightmare. Have you tried to right-click? All I want to do is copy-paste and spell check, all I get is a laundry list of useless (to me) functions. And what is the extra addition to the tool bar with a q of pages. I like that it opened up a new window for each e-mail link I click. Please I've been Mozilla since day 1.

This is the beginning of the Gamma testing of SM 2.2
Now with the release of the auto upgrade script from 2.0.14 to 2.2 begins the testing of 2.2 by the actual using public. Now all the gratuitous UI changes as well as the more serious bugs crawl out of the woodwork (the code) and begin to be reported. In previous version upgrades, there might have followed a series of bug fix and gratuitous change retraction releases. But no more. -- Rostyk ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

But at some point, you're likely to no longer be able to change new versions to old functionality. When such changes occur, I always force myself to work with it as is for a couple weeks at least.

Chatzilla, is and has always been considered a part of SeaMonkey. One we have always shipped with (though made its enabling/installing optional, but *always* in the installer) We have made the decision, due to technical hurdles, to ship it always, the addon manager allows you to remove/disable it at your discretion. (In early 1.1.x releases, the ONLY way to remove/disable it was the optional install, and is the only reason we ever had it as an optional install). -- ~Justin Wood (Callek) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: I want my old Seamonkey back
Rob, and others, it's apparently not as easy to go back to an earlier SM as you think. Here's part of what I posted on another thread: Looks like I can't go back to SM 2.0.18 (I think it was) which is what I was using before. The 'Known Issues' note for SM 2.2 is headed (in bold), 'Data loss warning' and continues: 'If you use a profile with this or any later version and then try to go back to SeaMonkey 2.0, SeaMonkey will rename your history file to places.sqlite.corrupt and create a new places.qlite file, effectively resetting your browsing history.' Well, I don't pretend to understand all of that, but it does seem to be saying that I will lose data if I try to restore the SM version I had before.
