Email logs overflow admin-container requiring horizontal scroll

I’m pretty sure this stems from a recent update — it used to be contained.

The Received email log is nicely contained because it has fewer columns:

The Sent and Rejected logs overflow:

Im not sure I see the problem, are you saying they are overflowing the page? They seem to have a horizontal scrollbar, so I think not?

Perhaps ‘overflow’ is not the best way to describe the issue. Previously there was no need for a horizontal scroll bar - everything used fit in the container.

There has been a recent change indeed

So this is the intended design. The alternative is a more squashed look.

Eventually, at a small enough width, the table is going to overflow horizontally and you need scroll. I guess you are reaching that point a bit quicker on your viewport now.

I see, thanks. I still prefer a squashed look over horizontal scrolling. Perhaps smaller text and less white space?

I noticed the change too – it’s especially awkward in Sent. Things seemed fine before the update.

The width of the Default/Foundation theme, at least, is constrained by design – not by viewport. I can only expose more of the table with CSS mods:

:root {
    --d-max-width: 1310px;
}

It would be neat if we could enable/disable columns, but short of that:

  • In Sent, I’m much more interested in surveying the Post & SMTP Details column than the Reply Key – I’d rather scroll right if I need a particular Reply Key.
  • Rejected is infrequently used, but I wouldn’t mind if To and Subject were wrapped a little tighter again, since they usually wrap anyway.
