I’m not aware that we intentionally changed anything with the line wraps.
But if you go to User Settings > Preferences, you can select between Fixed vs Fluid layout width. Do you recall making any changes here recently?
Here’s an issue with some discussion on the design of fixed vs fluid options. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/27347 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/27347
- CodingDutchy 8y agoThanks for replying to this. The fluid settings will help, although it is not quite the same on small laptop screens as before the change. At the same time I think the issue you link really highlights what some people have been saying: stable quality of the core product hasn't had the focus that customers would like it to have. Apparently you changed the line-wrapping behaviour twice in a year, without even realising that 1) you changed it, and 2) that some of your customers rely on this being stable. Of course you could argue that it was silly to rely on this behaviour, and that the new behaviour is in fact an improvement. But personally I think functional stability is important to all customers, and the fact that this was not a deliberate change is odd. Obviously such a small change will never drive away customers, but I do think quality is the difference between having users and having users that are also ambassadors that will recommend your product.
