A simple solution would be to not use such a long application title :)

However, I you really have to do that, what do you propose we solve this?

  • We could shorten the title with ellipsis
  • We could perform some layout magic.

The latter would probably be preferable. But we still would have to deal with line breaks in case of narrow browser windows. And I personally have no idea on how to solve this now. If you have a proposal for that, please provide it. Also note that the spot where the application title is now was originally thought of as a place for a graphic logo (which is not yet decided on so it's text for now)

Given that, I'd still prefer my first solution: "Don't use a long application title."

:( Yea, maybe I got a little too excited, being my first bug report and all, I'm trying out some css changes.

Yeah, but only if you have a rather wide browser window. If you narrow it down, the navigational toolbars on the right wrap around to the next line and break the layout again.

Given the min-width of 900px of the whole layout, the text couldn't be any much wider than the current 200px anyways because depending on the name of the logged in user and the translated language, space becomes really sparse. While you are free to define a higher min-width in your own theme, I'm hesitant to do that in the core because it would break compatibility with common tablets and smaller screens.

P.S. Welcome to ChiliProject and thanks for reporting your issues! This is always welcome.

Thanks, That makes sense, I just created a new theme with the necessary changes and all is well. I'll close out the issue.

:)
