The developers of the Thunderbird email client have introduced a new design for the scheduler calendar, which will be offered in the next major release of the project. Almost all elements of the calendar have been redesigned, including dialogs, pop-ups and tooltips. The design is optimized to increase the visibility of displaying loaded charts with a large number of events. Expanded options for adapting the interface to your preferences.
The monthly events summary view narrowed down the Saturday and Sunday event columns to provide more screen real estate for weekday events. The user can control this behavior and adapt it to their own work schedule, independently determining which days of the week can be turned off. Calendar operations previously offered in the toolbar are now displayed in context, and the user can customize the composition of the panel to his taste.
New options for customizing the appearance have been added to the drop-down menu, for example, in addition to the previously noted collapse of the columns with holidays, you can completely remove the column data, replace colors, control the highlighting of events with colors and icons. The event search interface has been moved to the sidebar. Added a popup dialog to select the type of information (title, date, location) shown for each event.
The interface design has been redesigned to view detailed information about the event. Made important information more visible, such as details about the venue, organizer, and attendees. The ability to sort event participants by invitation acceptance status has been provided. The ability to switch to the screen with detailed information by single clicking on the event and opening the editing mode by double clicking is provided.
Notable non-calendar related changes in a future release include support for the Firefox Sync service to synchronize settings and data between multiple instances of Thunderbird installed on a user's different devices. It will be possible to synchronize account settings for IMAP / POP3 / SMTP, server settings, filters, calendars, address book and a list of installed add-ons.
