GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 127228
ILS Directory Columns get too wide
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Columns should be displayed such that a horizontal scroll would be unnecessary (RhythmBox does it! : http://www.rhythmbox.org/).
The colums are auto-sized to the size of entries. If I suppress the horizontal scroll, you won't be able to read the full name of users and to see all fields. That won't be better, that will be worse.
What about _extremely long_ "names"? Like the ones about gnomemeeting and firewalls? Even with a maximised window, you cannot see all columns! There should be at least a limit, IMHO. Thanks!
I can limit the size, yes, but it will always be impossible to see all columns without scrolling. I can not remove scrolling. Any suggestion or patch?
I have a screenshot of what I'd "suggest". Où peux-je vous l'envoyer ? Also, thanks for taking into account users' suggestions (as opposed to what other projects do, whom I prefer not to do any publicité here)... :)
You can attach it to bugzilla or mail it to me privately (dsandras@seconix.com)
I didn't receive anything yet...
Clarifying the subject a little bit, will help with searches. incuo: you can attach a screenshot by using the link here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/createattachment.cgi?id=127228 if you want.

Notice that CVS presents the most important information first, scrolling is only needed if you want to see "more".
