Description:
|
If you're using whitespace characters in values shown in a tree or list, those whitespace characters are almost invisible due to the proportional font we're using.
This is quite a usability issue because it's e.g. hard to find accidentally entered whitespace characters in the configuration tree. You essentially have to double-click on a value to enter edit mode to be able to detect it at all.
The options to fix this, which I see are:
*
Do not trim whitespace characters at the beginning and the end (if we do so)
* Show the full value with a tooltip (would be a nice addition anyway), and
use a
monospaced font and marked whitespace characters to show it exactly. Good for verifying a value and for looking at values, which are truncated. Not working on tablets, though.
* Use a
monospace font
in the value field
: nice looking, but allows less of a value to be seen. We might not want to use it everywhere, but only e.g. in the config tree.
*
use
Use
a placeholder char when rendering a value (e.g. a square or underscore): not so nice looking and possibly misleading, if that character is actually used.
