Closed bug report

Header wraps: subtitle and run meta break onto 2-3 lines instead of truncating/hiding

John Lauer · ·closed by John Lauer

John flagged the dashboard header word-wrapping (2026-10-19, an R7 electronic-load run):

Header wrapping

The subtitle "current and heat" wraps into a narrow three-line column next to "Fields", and the subject meta ("72 x 72 mm · 35 µm · 6 nets · 3 hot parts · 71 issues") wraps onto two lines. John: "the way you word wrap in title bar bugs me."

The dash-header spec puts the name and subtitle on one line, on the same baseline, and hides the subtitle (and the subject meta) on narrow widths; nothing in the bar should ever wrap.

Fix:

  • white-space: nowrap on the app name, subtitle, run title and meta.
  • The run title is the flexible part: flex: 1 1 auto; min-width: 0; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis (full text in a tooltip).
  • When space runs out, drop pieces in order instead of wrapping: meta first, then the subtitle (container query or width breakpoints), never the app name.
  • Ralph-test the header at 1400 px, at the width in the screenshot, and at 390 px: one line each time.

Fixed in adom-fields 0.8.7. Nothing in the title bar wraps any more:

  • Layout: "Fields" and its subtitle sit on one line, on one baseline.
  • Board name: it shrinks with an ellipsis, and the full name and details are in a tooltip.
  • Narrow panes: pieces drop in order instead of wrapping. The board details go first, below 900 px of bar, then the subtitle, below 560 px. The app name always stays.

Update with adom-wiki pkg install adom/adom-fields. Closing; reopen with a screenshot if a width still wraps.
