Bug Description

The spec for emblem's states that the size is automatically configured to be a square with the height of the title as the width/height. For anything that's not a square (think BBC logo, a rectangle) this results in an emblem that's really small and not readable.

---------------------
Desired resolution:

- Emblems should be of a fixed height (2GU) with variable width (proportional)

--- UX comment ---

As a quick fix 'Emblems should be of a fixed height with variable width'. However, this is part of a bigger redesign of the scope toolkit and layouts. This piece of work is ongoning.
