Galaxy S7
Steps to reproduce
-
Create a draft email, while using the Light or System Default theme.
-
There is no Send, Attach or Menu button in the draft email, as shown in this screen capture.
[Note - if you normally use the Dark theme, this problem may take up to a few hours to become apparent.]
-
If you then switch to the Dark theme and back to the Light or System Default theme the problem temporarily disappears - i.e. if you then create a draft email, the Send, Attach and Menu buttons will now be visible, as shown in this screen capture.
-
However if you continue to use the Light or System Default theme, then after a while (sometimes a few minutes, sometimes a few hours), the Send, Attach & Menu buttons will again not be visible in draft emails.
Note: This problem never occurred prior to the release of K-9 Mail version 18.0.
Expected behavior
The Send, Attach & Menu buttons should always be visible in draft emails.
Actual behavior
See above.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in K-9 Mail 18.0 on Android 8.0 using a draft email and the Light or System Default theme; compare the draft editor before and after switching themes. Trace the theme-related draft editor UI, and consider the issue done when Send, Attach, and Menu remain visible while continuing to use those themes.
