[jira] Created: (IVY-666) Limit the width of running text
Limit the width of running text
-------------------------------
Key: IVY-666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-666
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha-2
Reporter: Niklas Matthies
On pages with wide code samples, example output or pictures, the lines of normal running text stretch equally wide, which is detrimental to the text's legibility. Lines should therefore be limited to a reasonable length for running text.
One way to achieve this would be to markup all paragraphs of running text with {{<p class="running-text">}}...{{</p>}}, and add a CSS style like "{{p.running-text { width: 40em; }}}" (or "{{max-width}}" for those browsers that support it).

[jira] Commented: (IVY-666) Limit the width of running text
Posted by "Steve Appling (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.

Steve Appling commented on IVY-666:
-----------------------------------
This doesn't seem to be resolved to me. See the current main tutorial page at http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-release/tutorial/start.html.
The long lines in the examples from log/hello-ivy-1.txt and hello-ivy-2.txt are still causing the window to have a minimum width of 1466 px in Firefox and 1638 px in IE. This makes it very hard to read on many monitors.

[jira] Resolved: (IVY-666) Limit the width of running text

Xavier Hanin resolved IVY-666.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 2.0.0-beta-2
Assignee: Xavier Hanin
I've fixed the readibility problem by using the overflow attribute on pre elements, so that the line length no longer depends on long lines in pre elements, but rather on browser window size.
