Subject: Re: Width of text field 

Did you try the options

  • Summary lines = x
  • Summary line length = x

as documented in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#flags ?

It works nicely with plain text entries; it has some difficulties with HTML, since it has to remove the formatting and that disturbs the line count.

Cheers Andreas

I use a elog which has a text field to show log entries:  https://classis01.roma1.infn.it/elog/calib/     In the "Summary" view there are only 3 lines of about 40 characters shown, so often the entry is cut off even though there is plenty of space in the text box for longer lines.   To see the full entry you must click on the ID number.   Is there any way to configure the Text box to show longer lines?   Thank you.
