Feature Request: Windows App - set a min width and auto-sizing #108

Open it33 opened 3 years ago

it33 commented 3 years ago

@asaadmahmood this might need your recommendation on what to do here, my sense on the Windows App, v0.6 is that we should work on some of the auto-layout and min width settings.

Min width of default lay out too wide (UI gets cut-off if the app isn't sized really wide):

Min width limit too small:

Yup, we definitely need a min width. And we need to make the app slightly more responsive to atleast be okay till a 960px or 768px width hopefully.

it33 commented 3 years ago

Thanks @asaadmahmood would you be able to recommend a few options for minimum width? Wondering how this worked for the Mattermost project. Could we set the same policies maybe?

asaadmahmood commented 3 years ago

@it33 We would have to first make the app responsive, see what makes sense for the app. The layout of both Mattermost and Focalboard is slightly different, so it would be good to see how much we can condense it first with it being functional, and then set a min-width to it.

If I have to give a value, I would say 1024px to be safe side for now.

We may allow users to narrow the app even more than that, but we can have guidelines to use the app for a larger width.

Thanks @asaadmahmood! Marking this as up for grabs. It should be a fairly easy fix for anyone who wants to build the Windows app (make win-wpf-app). While you are at it, please also set the min-height if there isn't one (I'll guess 480px unless @asaadmahmood you have a better idea).
