Redmine

Same happens in our Redmine.
Exactly like in the Screencapture of Luis Serrano Aranda

Happens in ours as well.

I have worked, if not quite right and looks good also in internet explorer

Change in /redmine/lib/redmine/helpers/gantt.rb

Older line 183
options[:top_increment] = 20 unless options.key? :top_increment

New line 183
options[:top_increment] = 30 unless options.key? :top_increment

Old line 711
output= "<div class='......line-height:1.2;height:16px....>

New line 711
output= "<div class='......line-height:1.6;height:28px....>

And in the file /redmine/app/views/gantts/show.html.erb

Old line 65

g_height = [(25.....

New line 65

g_height = [(30.....

I think this great and improves the gantt visualization

Thanks for your attention and sorry for my english

Nearly perfect solution, but if you have a lot of Tickets there is not enough place if you scroll down the Gantt

You have changed the file /redmine/app/views/gantts/show.html.erb ?

Put a bigger number I think is this parameter

Your Solution works perfect. Thanks :) Good Work!
I think the Problem that i had after was caused of the Browsers Cache.

The fix from Luis Serrano Aranda works, but now every row has the additional height. This can be used to work but it's not ideal yet. What happens if a title takes up the space for three lines? The best thing would be that it grows depending on the text.

Never the less, thank you very much for your work.

What do you have changed in the line 360 (file gantt.rb) ?

Thanks

Just " for ' (single quotes), absolutely useless.

Ups is true sorry

Very nice solution! It working here.

With Internet Explorer if the subject is truncated fails to calculate the position.

Yep, damn IE6.

Perfect but when I put the title in all caps, when exporting to pdf gives problems

Thanks

What kind of problem ? This patch is not supposed to have any impact on PDF export, are you sure that your problem was not present before you applied the patch ?

This patch seems to just cut of the long names of issues.
This is not very usefull when the gantt chart is printed (hence no mouseover)
-> Why not have 2 lines or more when name is soo long, but displayed proper an not
shown als little dots under the first line.

btw: no hard problems with Redmine 1.11 and patch applied.
-> but when last word before truncation is too long, the word it self and "(..)" overlaps with
the bar in diagram of this issue.

Yes, this patch is not nearly a perfect solution, it just enhances the Gantt visual aspect by removing subject overlapping.

Subject length mostly overstep default width of the subjects div (at least on my redmine) so there would be almost half the issues eventually listed on the screen, that could be a problem.

This is not very usefull when the gantt chart is printed (hence no mouseover)

Gantt tab is not very well suited for direct screen printing, is it ? PDF should be a better choice ?

but when last word before truncation is too long, the word it self and "(..)" overlaps with

the bar in diagram of this issue.

Could you post a screenshot ? What browser are you using ?

As I said before :

Thanks.

BTW, this patch does not really solve the problem, it only prevents the actual ugly vertical override.

Maybe we could try some other way like adding a horizontal moving separator between subjects and lines in addition to this truncation, thus one could resize at will the subject bar to whatever he needs if the default width does not fit his need.

There are leads here or here.

Well the patch does makes the html view consistent with the pdf view.

A moving separator seems a bit over the top solution to only show the issue name. Actually, I like your previous suggestion of showing a tooltip with the full issue name.

I was also thinking about the possibility later on to add columns to the subjects bar.

Nice.

You should replace the to_s_with_project in source:/trunk/lib/redmine/helpers/gantt.rb with something like the result of format_version_name() in source:/trunk/app/helpers/application_helper.rb#L176

I'd test it with IE6 as applying style directly to div instead of span (white-space and text-overflow) didn't work previously (see note 16).

• no subject text for truncated subjects when the issue is assigned and using gravatar
• else, subject text for truncated subjects is displayed over the issue icon

I think that CSS should be move out from the page to the stylesheet, firstly because it's bad habit to repeat style with the style attribute and secondly because that would lighten the html when rendering a lot of issues in the Gantt.

Plus : why not truncate the version and project subjects too ?

Sorry, couldn't reopen the issue (#7678) :/

As feared, new rendering of the Gantt with IE6 is very ugly :

Maybe replacing the div in #html_subject with a span would make IE6 happy? Can you give a try?

Done in r4916.

They are truncated. Do you mean adding a title to the div?

IE6 is very thought to satisfy, I think I've already try this trick ; I'll try again and tell you back.

Ok, maybe should I put my glasses on...adding the title would be nice also.

Still ugly.

You should be able to reproduce this behavior with IE by switching document mode to IE7.

I made a LOT of tries with css / html and the only configuration finally doing fine is the one I included with the patch.

I've just applied this patch with v1.1.1 and it works fine. I also use the patch from #2024 and there seems to be no conflict with regards to the layout.

I've tested it in FireFox 3.6 and Chrome 9.0.597.9 on Ubuntu 10.10. Not tried IE I'm afraid.

Thanks for this great patch.

Are you sure ?

This is pretty regressive for IE6 users (and they are still numerous) if they use Gantt+avatars.

That would be nice to have it fixed too as we know there is a solution (at least one).

Now that Microsoft is even trying to kill IE6, see http://ie6countdown.com/ , I wonder if it still worth the effort to provide workarounds specific for IE6. Fact is that it is a 10 year old browser which doesn't follow web standards.

IE6 is far from being dead ; about 3.6 % as for Jan. 2011, which is more than Opera.

My company switched to IE8 only 2 months ago.

I think we should suport it.

Why are the gantt fixes made in the application.css and not in a separate css file? Custom themes/stylesheets are not getting updated this way. This doesn't apply to this issue only of course.
