The restrict comment field is too narrow to see full group name

Michelle Vincent

When trying to add a restriction to a comment in JIRA, the field is too narrow and you can't see the full group name. When we have groups that follow a naming structure and all start the same, this means it is trial and error to find the right group to restrict to.

Is there any way to widen the field to allow the full name of the group to show?

Hi, Michelle,

Have you considered renaming your groups so that they would fit, e.g.

"Information Services Data.." -> "IS Data.."
"Information Services Department A" -> "IS Dept A"
"Information Services Department B" -> "IS Dept B" ?

Sometimes it's easier to adapt somehow.

Best regards,

Hi Grigory,

Our groups are AD groups used for email, Confluence, JIRA, network folder permissions and more. Changing the group names would be a very large project that would impact almost every application. So we would definitely prefer to not have to do that.

Yes, this way it's better to keep your group names intact.

I may have found a workaround through the annoncement banner:

1. Go to the "Announcement banner edit page"

2. Insert the following CSS:

<style type="text/css">
.select-menu{
min-width: 350px;
}
</style>

You may increase the value if necessary.

Be aware, that this changes the width of all drop-downs throughout the system.

There shoud be a way to apply this setting specifically to the comment section. Let me do some research and I'll return with the result.

Hope this will help.
