Download v2.1.0
Customize Quick Filter Toolbar
Quick filter toolbar can be customized same as the message header toolbar. You can open the customize window by right-click menu on it.
The following is an example of icon only display. Of course, same as the message header toolbar, hiding some buttons, text only display, changing order and adding a spacer/separator are also available.
Please note the pin icon, separator after it and text field at the tail of the toolbar are not able to be customized.
Customize toolbar buttons individually
From v2.1.0, icon display can be set up for each toolbar buttons. The following is an example of individual configuration. Reply and Forward button are set as Icons beside text and others are icons only.
To do that, select "Individual" in the customize window. Then "Icon" and "Text" buttons appear beside the list. The Icon and Text buttons are toggle button. The states represent icon
and text display.
And icons and text in the list also mean the states.
Icon is not shown for text only button; text is surrounded by brackets
for icon only button. For hidden button, both the Icon and Text buttons are OFF state.
To show a hidden button, change Icon or Text to ON state.
Rename toolbar buttons
The customize window has the "Rename" button. You can change button label as you like. The following example changes "Forward" button label to "Fwd".
When you click the Rename button, a form will pop up. Input new name of the selected one and then click OK to apply. If you input empty string, the original name will be back.
Smart Reply button has several child buttons inside. For such button, all labels are show by separated by commas as the following example. Please note if the number of labels you input differs from the original one, it will be ignored. So, please do not remove/add the commas.
The input form sometimes has "Prevent this page from creating additional dialog" option. Please do not enable it. Otherwise the form will not appear in the session. If you wrongly check it, close the customize window and open it again. The form will be back.
The option aims to prevent system from browser crasher which open a form infinitely. No need to enable it for this add-on.

This feature is new in v2.1.0 Beta4.
Calendar, Tasks and Today buttons can be hidden. "Customize Calendar Buttons" menu is added to the context menu of the mail toolbar. When you click the menu, a popup window will appear. There are following three check boxes in the window:

Star and Print Buttons
This feature is new in v2.1.0 Beta5.
Star and Print buttons are added to the message header toolbar. Please note the buttons are hidden by default.
Note
Structure of preferences data is changed. When you update v2.0.x to v2.1.0, it will be converted automatically. But when you downgrade, backward conversion will not be performed. So, if you downgrade to v2.0.x, open customize window and click the Reset button. It clears v2.1.0 preferences data and it is recreated for v2.0.x on startup of Thunderbird.
If it messes up a toolbar by a bug or something, click Reset button in the customize window. If the Reset does not work remove the add-on and re-install it.
