455744 - Text fields on enter_bug.cgi are too large and inconsistent compared to show_bug.cgi

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: User Interface, defect)

Description

[Frédéric Buclin]

Attachment: patch, v1

Here is an interesting comparison between enter_bug.cgi and show_bug.cgi:

Page      | enter_bug | show_bug
================================
assignee  |    32     |   30
qa contact|    32     |   30
CC list   |    45     |   30
URL       |    60     |   40
summary   |    60     |   80
keywords  |    60     |   40

There is no reason to not be consistent between both pages, so the patch fixes this. I set the bug summary field to 70 (instead of 80) to be almost as large as the description field. I also let the bug summary field use the whole row to not push flags too far on the right (the win is 30 pixels!). Now I no longer need to scroll horizontally to access the requestee fields. :)

Not a blocker but will probably make 3.2 anyway.

Yeah, this is pretty obviously correct, when I look at it.
