Daniel Barclay (Drill) updated DRILL-3447:
------------------------------------------
Description:
Although the documentation pages sometimes are styled to not prohibit browsers
from wrapping text to fit, at some browser window widths, when the outline
appears on the left, the styling reverts to fixed-width formatting--but uses a
width that is wider than the available space, meaning that part of the page is
not visible without horizontal scrolling. See the attachment.
Why does the styling switch to a fixed width in the first place? If we want to
prevent the lines of text from becoming so long that they are hard to read, set
the max-width property, not the width property. Then we don't block the
browser's usual ability to try to fit the content into the user's chosen
browser window width.
