make left pane resizable #398

Closed prototype99 closed 2 years ago

this is mostly a usability suggestion.

Word-wrap would be a real mess for no good reason, IMO. The default width allows for enough text to sufficiently convey each issue, plus there's a hover tooltip with the whole message. Only thing that I see which could possibly be improved, is that clipped text could have an ellipsis.

if you have a list you're looking through though, and if you're in an environment with lots of motion (think a train or a bus) trying to hover isn't always the easiest. it could always be added as a configurable option i guess.

When making decisions about the UI, we don't usually factor in whether or not the user might be bouncing around while using it.

I don't think it warrants a built-in option, but it's all just CSS, so you can easily create a style and make it look any way you like.

Yeah, some of the errors can be very long and edge cases like this can be easily customized via CSS so if you think wrapping could be useful to many people (we obviously don't think so), publish such a style on userstyles/openusercss and see if it gets traction.

That said, making the panel edge draggable is something one might expect from a UI so I'm marking it as an enhancement. Pull requests are welcome.
