Unknown symbol in all cells #33

Closed maxlarsen closed 8 years ago

maxlarsen commented 8 years ago

In all the .csv files I open, everything works perfectly but I always have these symbols (like three dots in a light grey box) that I can't make sense of: selection_015

Hi @maxlarsen, it's to indicates than the content of the cell is bigger than the cell and that a part of it maybe hidden (hence the ellipsis). Since CSS text-ellipsis property doesn't work on multiline text I had to find a workaround.

Are you by chance on a windows computer? I have found that measuring the cell's content was not as sharp on windows than on OSX and linux.

Hi, thanks for your answer. I am on ubuntu and the file is a very plain csv like so:

1858,1924,1,1912,1922
1862,1946,1,1915,1940
1856,1941,1,1916,1939
1857,1945,1,1917,1922
1857,1930,1,1922,1929
1862,1942,1,1923,1937

In particular, in the screenshot above, the content is not bigger, I am seeing everything.

Ok, looks like there's a problem, sometime it can be just triggered by the line height of the cell which is bigger than the cell's height, but I'll have to look for a better way of handling that case.

I am seeing this same issue as well, and I am running OSX. It's especially distracting with a light background. For now I've just tinkered with the css to get the "after" content to go away.
