#245 shorten long update titles
Opened a year ago by kparal. Modified 8 months ago

If there's a Bodhi update with a very long title (e.g. with 50 builds included), it can occupy a lot of space and make the UI elements harder to read and navigate. It's probably a good idea to shorten it, either by cropping after X characters, or by using the update id instead of update title in these cases (not always). This affects the bug list view, the updates view, and the requests view.

Note, I think @mohanboddu has asked me before to not edit the update titles in the requests, because he literally copies and pastes those lists of builds as part of the releng process. I used to edit them manually to give them snazzy titles like "GNOME 42 megaupdate" or whatever, but because of that request, I stopped :)

@mohanboddu , can you confirm or deny? :D Thanks!

This KDE update makes the popup larger than the available screen, and gets cropped. If not in Requests, we have to shorten it at least in the GUI views.
