JIRA 6 - Increase display width of field "Project" during issue creation

[Peter Jahn]

Is it possible to increase the display widht of the field "Project" in the "Create Issue" screen in JIRA. Our project names are too long to be shown completely in the field with the default length.

using javascript you can do it, check this post

https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/193234/increase-the-width-of-project-field

sample code

<script type="text/javascript">  
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {				
				callFunction();
			});
			callFunction();
			
function callFunction(){
				$('#project-single-select').css('max-width','500px');
				$('#project-single-select').css('width','500px');
				$('#project-field').css('max-width','500px');
				$('#project-field').css('width','500px');
}

});
</script>

Is there any chance that Atlassian is fixing this? I just took a look in the current server version and it still looks the same - without any reason since the drop-downs that are used some rows beneath this are also bigger.

Also - this script does not seem to work with the current version of JIRA :-(

The result here in our cloud version is this...but why?
