Description of problem: Having a BZ with some "unwrappable" lines (example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=801571) all the comments are spread over very wide window, and vertical scrolling is required. Bug's header does not fit vertical window - IIUC this is due to long "Product" field. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.2.4 (RHBZ as of today) How reproducible: 100% affects bugs with wide `preformatted` lines Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a firefox window some 1000-1200px wide 2. open Bug 801571 Actual results: - vertical scrolling is necessary for a lot of comments in the BZ - vertical scrolling is necessary to see reporter Expected results: - comments which are not `<pre>` should not require vertical scrolling - header should fit the screen if possible Additional info:
...and I am using RHEL6.3: firefox-10.0.11-1.el6_3.x86_64
FWIW here is the stylish [1] rule I use to make the BZ layout work for me on a 960px wide layout (half a 1920 screen).

This is one of these issues where some people will complain if we make the change, and others will complain if we don't. Currently the CSS (from global.css) is: .bz_comment_text, .uneditable_textarea, tbody.file pre { font-family:monospace; white-space:pre-wrap; } I think the best compromise is to change it to break lines by default, but have an option (under the 'Expand all comments' link) to unwrap the line. -- simon
The wide comment issues shown in bug 801571 should be fixed as a part of bug 823423. The wide product and text fields in the bug header isn't something we can fix as not everyone may desire the smaller text boxes. In this instance the stylish plugin may be the best fix.
