[jira] [Created] (DRILL-3447) Doc. pages don't let text wrap at certain widths

---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Doc. pages don't let text wrap at certain widths
                 Key: DRILL-3447
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3447
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Daniel Barclay (Drill)
         Attachments: ss_Drill_doc_sometimes_fixed_width.png

Although the documentation pages sometimes are styled to not prohibit browsers from wrapping text to fit, at some browser window widths, when the outline appears on the left, the styling reverts to fixed-width formatting--but uses a width that is wider than the available space, meaning that part of the page is not visible without horizontal scrolling.

Why does the styling switch to a fixed width in the first place?  If we want to prevent the lines of text from becoming so long that they are hard to read, set the max-width property, not the width property.  Then we don't block the browser's usual ability to try to fit the content into the user's chosen browser window width.
