Screen Wrapping Issue for longer label fields

Hi Etienne,

We noticed field label wrapping issue in 24.1.

The full content of the field label gets truncated when based on browser size (different on laptop and different on Monitors) . Only when you hover over the field is when you can view the label. Is there a solution that we can implement to fix this issue. Ideally, we want the field label to adjust/wrap based in the browser size.

Please find screens below.

    Hi Urva,

    This is not a new behavior as far as I can tell: Fields prompts will be truncated (not wrapped) when reaching the end of their horizontal field size, and the available horizontal space will obviously depend on your screen resolution.

    If you want a different built-in or configurable behavior, that's an Enhancement request. 

    That being said, as usual you could try to change this with a bit of custom CSS, however considering how impactful changing the way fields prompt get (not) wapped, it's very hard to predict if customizing fields prompts CSS may have some unfortunate layout impact on other PPM pages. But if you're still willing to take the risk of CSS customization, this one seems to work in my dev environment:

    td.fieldPrompt {
      	overflow: visible;
    	white-space:normal;
    }

    But please keep in mind that customizing PPM CSS is something you're doing at your own risk - as the layout impact on various PPM pages can be hard to assess. 

    A much more reliable & supported approach would be to make these fields large enough so that their prompt would not be truncated even on small screen resolutions.
