             Summary: Long field prompts can obscure field labels
                 Key: QPID-6073
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6073
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
    Affects Versions: 0.30, 0.31
            Reporter: Keith Wall
            Priority: Trivial


The Jave Broker's Web Management UI used field prompts within create
/edit dialogues to provide the user with more details about the purpose of each attribute.   These field prompts are implemented using Dijit's promptMessgaes.

Dijit default rendering algorithm [1] places the prompt to the right of the field if there is sufficient window space, falling back to the left otherwise.  Unfortunately when it falls back to left, it obscures the attribute name.

[1] http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.10/dijit/Tooltip.html#id7

We should config Dijit globally to position the tooltip to 'right' if possible, then fallback to 'below' if there is insufficient space. This will above obscuring the label.,
