Question: How do I get less space between name and dates

[JustCarmen]

I am using your charts with minor modifications.

I noticed the boxes in the latest version are larger than before. As a result, there is much more unused and unnecessary space between the names and the dates.

Old version:

Current version:

You probably have your reasons for this change, but I like more the compact layout of the previous version. So I tried to get it back, but I can't get it to work:

I figured out that I should change LAYOUT_VERTICAL_NODE_WIDTH en LAYOUT_VERTICAL_NODE_HEIGHT in resources\js\modules\lib\constants.js. I reset the values to the old values (150 and 175).

But then I get this:

The dates are outside the box

And now I am stuck. What else should I change?

The extra space is used for the alternative name of an individual, as its currently not possible to create boxes with different heights.

I added a module config and a form option to show/hide the alternative name.

Where can I see this configuration? I did not find this interface in the background of version 1.7.1.

Thanks Rico for this fix. Works fine.

@xiaoyang2013 This code has been added to the development version and will be part of the next release.
