Commit Toolbar Button Width

Open BOBJohnson opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Feature description

If I 'Customize' the VS troolbar that has the Solution Configurations, Solution Platforms, and Startup Projects drop down, if I select 'Modify Selection', VS give me the option to set the Width.

I don't know if it would be feasible or possible, but it would be nice if I could set the Width on my Commit button on the Git Extensions toolbar.

Environment

  • GitExtensions version: 33.33.0
  • GIT version: 2.27.0
  • OS version: Windows 10, 1909 Build 18363.1316
  • .Visual Studio version: Community 2019, 16.8.4

It took me a time to understand the feature request...

This request is about the VisualStudio integration

It probably should be moved to : https://github.com/gitextensions/gitextensions.vsix/issues

Yes, this is the width I was talking about, only for the Commit button of the Git Extensions toolbar.

It'd be useful because while the Commit button does auto-size to name of the branch, it appears to have a max width. So really long branch names get cut off.

For example, if I had a branch name of 'MyReallyLongBranchNameGetsCutoff', then the Commit button would say: 'Commit (...ongBranchNameGetsCutoff)'

I have the git extensions toolbar on it's own row on a 4k monitor, and more than ample space to make the Commit button really wide. For instance, the Startup Projects in your screenshot defaults to a width of 200, and I set it to 800, and I still have room to spare on the toolbar.

Either that, or some option that states to not cap the Commit button width.
