Using classic Outlook for Windows in business environments
UP FIX THIS bullcrap

My outlook.live.com quick actions moved to the far right of subject and received column and I can't move them back beside sender and subject. The quick actions appear on far right of email. I went to Mail - Customize actions -Quick actions. The template shows them on right but the screen narrative shows "Quick actions appear beside sender names and subject lines in your message list". Please help me get the quick actions back to between From (Sender Name) and Subject.
Thanks

UP FIX THIS bullcrap
hey, ive been using this lifesaver since u posted it (thx🙏), but today it stopped working, I already re-installed your new version from your github, but its not working for me neither in firefox nor chrome
It's because they've updated the class names. I did some fiddling with mine and got it to work again (not sure if exactly the same as what Ross had before). Here's the lines/changes to do.
waitForKeyElements(".UWVIR", moveQuickActions);
waitForKeyElements(".QpoLy", moveDeleteAction);
Under function moveDeleteAction(elem):
var newParent = parent.find(".xxeTh.XG5Jd");
if (newParent.length > 0 && !elem.hasClass("delete-hidden"))
And under function moveQuickActions(elem):
function moveQuickActions(elem)
{
var elem = $(elem);
var parent = elem.parent().parent();
if (parent.length > 0)
{
var newParent = parent.find(".xxeTh.XG5Jd");
if (newParent.length > 0)
elem.detach().appendTo(newParent);
}
}
It is absolutely insane to me that this change is so universally hated by outlook.live.com users that at least two of them we know of so far have created/edited scripts to reverse it (JordanMXW and ross doran, thank you both). And yet a Microsoft rep STILL hasn't addressed this 36 page thread or at least provided some type of logical justification for the move. I've said it before and I'll say it again: As an almost 40 year Microsoft fan, beta tester, and multiple platform paying customer, and as a 22 year Microsoft personal email address owner, this is the first time I can say that I am beyond super disappointed in Microsoft.
Hey thanks. Can the community get a full revised script with instructions for the less talented users?
