Increase default width of inputs

[jonashaag]

Inputs should be much wider, maybe twice as wide. Textareas in particular should be much wider -- currently they're even smaller than in Django's admin.

They should be a percent, right now they have a ridiculously small fixed width.
I went with 99%(to leave a little padding) but its a far from perfect solution.

For few projects i actually minimize inputs as default are too large

So i think it depends on you project - if it's an numeric input for price or something similar i don't think you want wider inputs for that. (However i saw some of my colleagues using browser maximized having 1920xN, this is not normal too, then of course such form looks more than strange)

Few things i could suggest:

1. I just added .row-fluid class to center container, which means you can use any of bootstrap .spanX classes for your inputs, like .span1 to .span12. Now these classes will work better, because they will adapt browser width when used in .row-fluid class and will always fit proportionally.

2. If you wish do not wish to use spanX classes, and used fixed width, you can increase twitter bootstrap default width for all inputs using following CSS in your projects .css file:

input,textarea,.uneditable-input{width:206px;}
select{width:220px}

These are twitter bootstrap values for .spanX sizes (Not fluid, regular ones), you can use one of those combinations for input and select for your default width.

input.span12,textarea.span12,.uneditable-input.span12{width:926px;}
input.span11,textarea.span11,.uneditable-input.span11{width:846px;}
input.span10,textarea.span10,.uneditable-input.span10{width:766px;}
input.span9,textarea.span9,.uneditable-input.span9{width:686px;}
input.span8,textarea.span8,.uneditable-input.span8{width:606px;}
input.span7,textarea.span7,.uneditable-input.span7{width:526px;}
input.span6,textarea.span6,.uneditable-input.span6{width:446px;}
input.span5,textarea.span5,.uneditable-input.span5{width:366px;}
input.span4,textarea.span4,.uneditable-input.span4{width:286px;}
input.span3,textarea.span3,.uneditable-input.span3{width:206px;}
.span12{width:940px;}
.span11{width:860px;}
.span10{width:780px;}
.span9{width:700px;}
.span8{width:620px;}
.span7{width:540px;}
.span6{width:460px;}
.span5{width:380px;}
.span4{width:300px;}
.span3{width:220px;}

Alternatively you can copy out from bootstrap.css fluid spanX sizes and set them as default.

Since v.0.2.0 Django Suit supports fluid classes. Closing issue
