How to reorder the "stacking" of Supernova toolbars in Windows 10

Hi, I just got the update to Supernova 115.1 (from 114), and it's clear you guys have been doing a lot of work. Thanks. There are two issues I can't figure out from the UI or the docs:

  1. The standard text-only toolbar (File...Edit...View...Go...Events and Tasks...Tools...Help) is not at the top of the toolbar stack, where it should be...instead, it's below the tab-specific toolbar. I can't seem to change the stacking order.
  2. The font vertical separation in all of the main email panes is too small, and appears to be un-adjustable. This makes the email box view and the email list view much harder to read than before. Perhaps there's a setting for this in the about:config world?

OH...my second issue is resolved with the Density control.

And my first issue is about the Menu Bar (what I called the standard text-only toolbar).

What font are you using?

In 115 this order is changed for all users. In a future version we expect changes which may make this less of an issue.

Hi Wayne, Thanks for the info regarding toolbar/menubar "stacking". If this is an area you folks are working on, my suggestion (FWIW) is to make the dynamic toolbar part of the relevant tab. That may have some issues with available real estate on some tabs (probably worst with Calendar), but at least for me would be much more intuitive. As I've been a T'bird user since it was Penelope, muscle memory definitely comes into play.

The "crowded house" issue with vertical spacing of fonts was totally fixed by changing the Density setting.
