(The following refers to what your Google is calling "Gmail's new compose and reply experience, speaking of words I'm thoroughly tired of.)
It took me a few minutes' hunting to find out how to do this, so I figured I'd pass it along in case the excessively subtle immediate visual cue escapes your attention as well.
If you're forwarding a message and you want to change the subject line from the default fwd: [original subject line], do the following.
- Click the ⇨ ▾ button next to the To: button
- Click Edit subject on the drop-down menu
As always, changing the subject line in the message you forward will cause this message to be separated from the conversation thread (those messages sharing the original subject line) in your Sent folder.

And no, I have no idea why the powers that be saw fit to include ⬆, ⬇, ⬈, ⬉, ⬊, ⬋, ⬌, and ⬍ among the Unicode set, but not a left- or rightward pointing one.
P.S. ➡ doesn't quite do it. Where's the head?
Thank you.....

y/w!
thank you for this info!! This also works for sending a reply if you need to change the subject header!!
Thanks for the additional tip, Karin!
You're welcome! Thanks for letting me know the tip helped.
Thanks - I change the subj line a lot to make sure no one misses the latest info and I had not found that option yet. Again Thanks
Is there a way to show the subject in forwarded mails as default?
Could you rephrase or elaborate, please, Paul? I don't understand what you're asking.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. Not being able to change the subject line was driving me crazy. Knowing that the ability was there all this time is exasperating since I thought I tried everything. Thank you again!

That means can I don't want to klick ''edit subject'' every time. I want to make it default. I want to see the subject every time.
Thank you! I was baffled until I found your tip!
Thank you Brendan! This was making me very Grinch-y till I found your post. Who thought putting it with the "to" box was intuitive? Some lateral hire from Microsoft, I bet.
