(web interface) long filenames are cutted

[Lele83x]

In webui files with a long filename are not correctly shown.
Such files should occupy 2 rows but instead of the second row it's shown just the upper half.

If this bug report relates to the webui, I noticed the same issue when using my netbook because of the reduced screen size. It makes it difficult to distinguish files with similar long names.

The following actions can improve readability by fitting the name on a single line:

The vertical bar to the right of the 'File Name' column can slide to the right to increase the space available, as can the bar between the 'File Name' and 'Type' column.

Zoom out to reduce the font size using Ctrl -

Maximise the size of the window so that it expands to fill the available space on the desktop.

Yes you can play with the columns or the sections but the files with long names should still be shown on two lines when there's no space, like all other web interfaces for file management

[Ronan (r-p-ryan)]

I agree. The entire name should be visible.

I was describing the 3+ steps that I have to take in order to read long file names on a netbook. There are too many steps involved and they are a workaround, not a fix.

Thanks for testing Ubuntu One.

This sounds like a bug in the webui, but as we are working in a branch new version of it, I'm assigning this to Elliot.

Elliot, please reassign or mark as duplicate as needed.
