Course name cut off #247

Open robinleung opened 6 years ago

robinleung commented 6 years ago

Hello, I'm using Moodle 3.4.2 with the latest version of Quickmail (1.7.5) and have reports that the course name is cut off (making it impossible for instructors to know which groups of students they are emailing.)

Can you confirm if that this is a bug? (screenshot attached)

Hi Robin, I see the problem you are having. Overall, I think this is a limitation of the existing UI design. The side by side multiselects take up a bunch of space. However, I do think this could be fixed with a simple CSS tweak. I'm thinking we could add overflow-x: scroll as a property to all of those multiselects and, if the text is long and runs past the set dimension, it would allow you to scroll horizontally with your mouse or by dragging on your phone.

If you've got a second, is there any way that you could open up a Dev Tools in your browser and manually add this in to see if it fixes your problem? If so, I can push out a release today.

Hi Chad, Thanks for the reply. I've just tried to add overflow-x: scroll into the multiselect but it doesn't seem to work. I've even tried to remove the overflow: auto that was there. Any other ideas?
