Summary	0021264: Option max_dropdown_length is not documented in Admin Guide
Description	Even though there is plenty of space, Mantis shortens product version strings in the dropdown menu where the product string can be selected. In my particular case, "OpenMPT 1.26.02.00 / libopenmpt 0.2-beta17 (upgrade first)" is shortened to "OpenMPT 1.26.02.00 / libopenmpt...first)", which is not very useful.
Tags	No tags attached.

atrol 2016-07-12 08:40 developer ~0053575	You can configure the maximum lenght by setting option $g_max_dropdown_length Changed as a documentation issue as option max_dropdown_length is not documented in Admin Guide. /** maximum length of the description in a dropdown menu (for search) set to 0 to disable truncations @global integer $g_max_dropdown_length */ $g_max_dropdown_length = 40;
