274448 - Too Much Space Between Columns

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 275631

(Bugzilla :: Query/Bug List, defect)

Description

[David E. Ross]

When I do a query that results in a list of bugs, the default display has a
horizontal scroll bar.  With the ID number on the far left and the Summary on
the far right, reviewing the list requires constant right-left scrolling.  

"New Features" for the new Bugzilla says:
"The page footer has been rearranged to make it scale better in narrow browser
windows."
The improvement for the footer is offset by this problem.  

Configuration:
Windows 98SE
800x600 screen, 32-bit true colors
Windows taskbar always displayed at bottom
Office 97 toolbar always displayed at right
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910
Default font: Georgia sized to 13 pixels

Note:  I can remove the horizontal scrollbar either by reducing the font size or
by eliminating a column.

This was like this before the upgrade, too, so this isn't a regression.

Regardless when it happened, there's too much space, and thus too much
horizontal scrolling. A single char between cols is more than plenty for me.
Right now it looks like there are 3 or 4, and on "bugs already filed today" on
average at the moment at least one word from summary col is offscreen unless I
scroll right, after which only last 2 chars of bug # show.

marking as dupe of bug 275631.
