Group list too wide and in the wrong order
June 17, 2009, 10:21:36 pm
Folks,

When adding a new contact, the list of groups has too problems.

Firstly, it's too wide (when descriptions are long) and the Tags list gets pushed off the side of the page.
Secondly, the groups are presented in id-number order, so it's hard to find the one you want.

Can we limit the description to N characters and order the groups by name (as is done on other screens).

Ken

(I tried the 2.3 sandbox and noted this is still an problem. I'm happy to add an issue if deemed appropriate.)

Ken:

We are in the process of implementing new Contact Edit for v2.3. You can check the mockup http://sandbox.civicrm.org/sites/sandbox.civicrm.org/modules/civicrm/mockups/contact/contactEdit1.htm

Layout is slightly changed and if if you have better solution do let us know.

Can you file an issue for this.
