@moranr @mcgilman I have updated this PR to also include a 'fix' to the
ellipsis plugin for the view state description.
@moranr I think you were seeing a caching issue with the scrollable
style...anyway, it should be fixed now with the latest update to this PR. Also
I was able to apply the styles you suggested in the Jira. Be aware, however,
there is an issue with the spacing you outlined in the Jira. The issue is that
the ellipsis plugin requires the width and height of the element be set in
'px'. With the responsive nature of the dialogs I do not believe we can support
these descriptions as responsive divs that would be necessary to fulfill said
spacing (i.e. to support a responsive description area div we would need to
apply position:absolute). This will require a much larger effort and as the
original ask for NIFI-2898 was to restore the 0.x ellipsis functionality I
think we could consider the spacing you outlined as part of a follow on Jira
that will support the scrollable description areas (as discussed in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2898). Please let me know what you
think...
