Issue Links names are being truncated

[Heigo Ankuhin]

Names of longer custom issue links are being truncated. The full name can only be seen by hovering over it..

Does anyone know if there is any way around this? By modifying the CSS of Jira for example?

Any help is much appreciated!

Hi @Heigo Ankuhin 

Yes, everything what you see if it is build using CSS should be possible to modify using it also however you should know that every modification might break your UI so do it only if you really required it.. 

Here is a nice KB about that topic

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-customize-jira-with-javascript-and-css-1178874962.html

As for this specific case I think modifying object called .links-list dt should do the job... 

You can put this piece of code into Announcement Banner and see how it goes.. 

<style>
.links-list dt {
width: 300px;
}
</style>

Of course width value is something that you modify to match your needs.. 

This is how it works for me

Hope it helps in some way

Thanks, Mirek.

This works perfectly. I was alternatively trying to solve this using ScriptRunner and Web Resources but your approach is a much simpler one.

Thanks again.
