876521 - [usage] dropdowns/buttons in usage too small for long localized texts/labels

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 842924

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Cost Control, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Attachment: screenshot of short labels

Unagi with Book2Gecko 1.1.0.0-prerelease 20130527070208

Some dropdowns and buttons in the Usage app are too small for long localized labels (e.g. in German), see attached screenshot.

Explanations:
1. The "Reset" button is too small, for German we have to use "Zurücksetzen".
2. The label for "Wi-Fi usage" in German is "WLAN-Nutzung" and also has not sufficient space.
3. The header for the phone and internet usage report wraps to two lines and background doesn't scale. I can fix that by dropping the "Internet" from the string.
4. The "Reset report" + <dropdown> doesn't work in German, the perfect German translation is: "Bericht" + <dropdown> + "zurücksetzen", so I changed it (not yet in the screenshot) to:
"Zurücksetzung" + <dropdown> (literally: "Resetting" + <dropdown> with dropdown values being "Week", "Month" or "Never" because adjectives are too long for the dropdown)

At least 1. and 2. are not fixable from the localizer side (and likely also affect others).
4. could also affect more localizations.

Feel free to split things off into new bugs.

I would say duplicate of bug 842924

Ok, 4. is duplicate of bug 842924.

1. + 2. should be fixed in one step because they vie for the same space in the settings screen (not the set up screen).

Adding a localizer to see if they can find a workaround to make the text fit

Sebastian, which of these issues are you still seeing in the current design?

I think 1. and 2. are fixed in the current design. Now the Reset button has it own line, so the labels have more space available.

All the issue have been fixed.
