Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hi,

Was there any reason to redesign Phabricator UI that much? Any way to rollback?

Anyway I have notification counter collide with application description in dashboard:
{F164462}

aik099 added a project: Applications.

I know that it's a large counter and that's why in T5295 I'm trying to build a graph of commits/audit rate to figure out why I have that many.

Options are:

  • Shorten the description
  • Cap the number at something reasonable (999)
  • Add a thin stroke the the number so it's "more" legible

Does it look terrible if it's moved up bit?

Here's what I have locally:

Screen_Shot_2014-06-09_at_7.40.17_AM.png (65×222 px, 8 KB)

Both those numbers are smaller than 999, and the description would have to be very short to come in under "999 / 999".

The description isn't supposed to be that close, so something went awry at some point.

Cap the number at something reasonable (999)

You can have 999+ or maybe use 1K instead of 1000 and so on in places where there is not enough room to fit long numbers.

Add a thin stroke the the number so it's "more" legible

I remember in one of previous designs of sidebar the was a blue square/circle with a background (sort of bubble) around the number. And that bubble had larger z-index so it overlapped the text and all was looking good.

chad claimed this task.
