Narrow window in issue display causes each Activity item to have separate horizontal scroll bar

      If I set the window to 900 pixels wide and then display an issue, the window as a whole gets a horizontal scroll bar. But if I scroll down to the Activities section (and click on "All"), each individual activity has its own scroll bar.

      This is Bad Design: In general, any scrolling area inside another scrolling area is hard to read and does not use the limited screen space well. In particular, the Activity items seem to be limited to about 3/4 of the available screen width, despite that the 1/4 of the width remaining on the right has nothing in it.

            Dale,

            If this bug only occurs at 900px wide then we're not going to be fixing it. Our current target minimum width (that we test our designs with) is 1024 px. We have to set the cut-off somewhere and 1024 is where we've decided to.

            IF you have any similar bug that also occurs at 1024 px (there isn't for me) we'll certainly do our best to fix it in supported browsers. I notice you are reporting the environment to enclude a beta of Firefox. Please try it with a final release version, because likewise, if it only occurs in a beta version of a browser, we will not likely be fixing it.

            Regards,

            Chris.
