Material chrome://flags: Many descriptions are elided. |
|||
Issue descriptionChrome 63.0.3236.0 macOS 10.12.6 What steps will reproduce the problem? (1) Visit chrome://flags What is the expected result? I can peruse descriptions like in the old chrome://flags What happens instead? Descriptions are elided to one line of ≈430 pixels. I know that there's a tradeoff between making things look nice and spaced-out, but many descriptions are severely truncated where they were easy to read before. Since this page is for developers (and power users?) I think we should prioritize detail over neatness. It would be nice if *most* descriptions were not truncated, e.g. by showing up to 3 lines by default. This also causes other issues: " Issue 772978 ".

I hear you. The thinking was to enable more experiments to be shown but since most users will search, we'll prioritise that case. I'm going stop eliding the description which will sort out the find in page problem.

Added global search and showing the full descriptions on desktop sized windows. https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/716876 Smaller mobile screens will continue to have the descriptions elided but searching will expand the descriptions when there are matches. |
