QNote clashes with Nostalgy++ #18

Closed ThomasHeinrichSchmidt closed 2 years ago

ThomasHeinrichSchmidt commented 2 years ago

After upgrading to TB 91 I cannot use QNote together with Nostalgy++ 3.0.4 (https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/nostalgy_ng/) any more. It worked without any problem with TB 78. While typing a QNote, Nostalgy++ recognizes the keystrokes typed into the note as commands, opens its configuration window and all sorts of funny things. This did not happen with TB 78 (using the same Nostalgy++ 3.0.4 version). It also does not happen when I write a normal email. I guess QNote keystrokes before were recognized as "normal email keystrokes" while now they are recognized as keystrokes "outside any mail" and thus triggering Nostalgy++. Can you help?

Duplicate of #16

OK I see, thanks. Is there a workaround? Changing Nostalgy++ source code myself? Seems not so easy to do when I read https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5299740/stoppropagation-vs-stopimmediatepropagation

I can not fix from the QNote side, but Nostalgy author has been dormant: https://github.com/opto/nostalgy-xpi/issues/128 Not sure if they have pushed latest sources to github so I also can't test (or rather won't on out of sync sources)

Simple patch has been submitted.
