EDIT button in Calendar Event window not visible

more options

Been using Thunderbird/Lightning for many years. In the latest update (115.10.1 (64 bit)), the EDIT button is not initially visible when I click on an event in my Calendar. In past releases, this edit button has always been visible in the pop-up window when I try to edit info in a New Event task. This happens SOME of the time, but not all. Any idea what changed, and is it possible to check out the code and change it back so when I double-click on an event, I see the edit button. At this time (not a big deal, but slows me down), when I go to edit an event, I have to move to a different monitor, resize the pop-up window so I can see the EDIT button, then finally click on it to edit the Event. In the past, the cursor immediately went to the EDIT button. Any info on changing this back the old way would be appreciated.

I would like to see it handled more like Sunbird did it: 1. when you double-click, it comes up already in edit mode. if you want to just look and not edit, then just close the window 2. the window that comes up is a fixed size - same size every time

That eliminates: 1. having to resize the window (really annoying) 2. having to double-click AND click Edit to edit it (extra step)

Just eliminate these extra steps.
