Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 94454
on search results page Summary often too truncated
Last modified: 2017-05-20 09:19:19 UTC
In a page of search results generated 9-29-08 by http://www.openoffice.org/issues/query.cgi with Summary entered as "table edit" (without quotes) for all strings, the page viewed with the browser set to Normal text size, the Summaries for issues 82067 and 49596 were truncated despite the former being 2 lines long with plenty of room. It appears 15 of the 51 results showed truncation of their Summaries. The Summaries are truncated by too much, so that many appear truncated, even those that run into 2 lines on the results page and leave most of the 2d line blank, so there's room to reduce truncation, thus lengthening many summaries and allowing more to appear in full. It appears that truncation occurs before the Summary is introduced onto the results page, when it should occur only when the amount of space available on the results page can be determined. Thank you. -- Nick
