Description
There are several problems with wrapping in the Attachments and Attachments macros. Comments always wrap properly on spaces, but other potentially long columns (e.g. Name, creator) do not.
So, if any attachment on the page has a long file name, and/or if the creator has been extended by a subsequent modification (which adds the words "modified by [users]"), the comments column becomes squeezed to its smallest possible width (a single long word). This is of course ironic and problemmatic since the comments column often has the most actual information.
The Attachments tab and the Attachments macro should be fixed as follows:
1. the Name (i.e. file name) column should dynamically wrap at spaces or dashes.
2. The Creator column should dynamically wrap at the point where "modified by [user]" is added. If possible, it should also wrap between first and last name and between last hame and any descriptive parethetic in the name (such as is used by [Atlassian].)
(Note: that attachment macro does not display the "modified by [user]" feature - a bug that should be fixed.)
If these two columns begin to dynamically wrap, then the comments column will have more room to display its text.
