1503199 - [3-pane] panel min-width when devtools docked to bottom

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Inspector, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Martin Balfanz [:mbalfanz]]

Currently panels can be freely resized without any constraints.  Esp. for the 3rd panel this allows for situations where it's hard to see that the panel is actually there.

The suggestions is that, when devtools is docked to bottom, the panels should have a minimum width.  The suggested min-width by Victoria is 225px.

Thanks Martin! A few more comments:

I'd also suggest that the middle and third panes could have more flex, so that it's not just the markup view getting quickly tiny when resizing the full window.

My 225px idea was based on Fonts panel starting to get a bit tight at that size. Later, we could do more responsive sizing so that the headings break on their own row.
