Unexpected label cropping in ports view

[jrieken]

• use @egamma's express sample
• run the start script
• check the ports view
• 😕 the actual link shouldn't be cropped, esp not when there is so much space

@jrieken I have gotten specific feedback from many sources that this link must be shortened! What do you gain by having the uuid visible?

[jrieken]

I wanna know what the uri is and it shouldn't be hidden. Today, I need to either open it or copy/paste - both not very friendly. Also, there is now enough space to show a long'ish url so I don't know how much of the "old" feedback is still valid

[alexr00]

The old feedback wasn't that the url was too long, it was that it was too scary. I personally am not afraid of long urls, but I do not feel like I need to know what the whole url is (I'm not going to do anything with the knowledge of what the url is), which means that it is a lot of meaningless characters to show.

[alexr00]

That said, I'll make some screenshots of both and share them around.

Further discussion showed that most people want to have the whole URL when the view is in the panel.

Wondering whether the cropping should only occur when it's in the panel (compared to the sidebar)?

All address cropping has been removed. Only regular overflow behavior with the ellipse is done (as shown in the screen shot).
