Layer Properties Information tab - formatting problems

[i-s-o]

In the Layer Properties/Information dialog (QGIS 3.10 and 3.11, Windows 10),

• CRS information is cut off
• Can't copy the full CRS string (related to item above)
• As the dialog is resized, labels column wraps too early (see pic)
• Text is too big (in my opinion)

Compare this to QGIS 3.4

How to Reproduce

1. Download one of U.S. NOAA's RNCs (geo-referenced charts) in BSB format. I used this one.
2. Unzip.
3. Drag/drop the file 12323_1.KAP onto QGIS from the appropriate sub directory.
4. Double-click the layer in the Layers panel.
5. Click on the Information tab on the left.

Additional context For this specific file, I can go to Settings > Custom Projections > Format: WKT to get the full string, but it would be nicer if I can see (and copy) the string in the Properties dialog.

@nyalldawson what's the reason for cutting CRS definition at 50 chars?

@i-s-o I've made a few small adjustments to the look and feel only, mind giving them a test run when the build is done?

Sorry for responding late, I didn't have access to my dev-VM: I was only able to compile overnight.

The dialog looks much better now:

Using 80% for the font size and a few more tweaks shown below make it even better in my opinion :). I haven't tested how these tweaks work on other platforms or other providers.

@i-s-o your version also looks nice, can you make a PR? Going to "actions" on your branch (top menu) you will also find a windows build that you can use for windows testing.

Ok, I will submit a PR later tonight.

Custom CRS truncation is still an open issue
