Attachment Field Length is to short

When in Submittals and RFI's the attachment field on the screen is very large but the name of the document only shows a certain amount of characters which is to short.  You can't even hoover over the name to see what it is which means you need to open it up.  If there are multiple items in the attachment field this gets quite annoying.

    OK - you'll be pleased to know that this will be corrected in the upcoming release (~April 3rd) as previewed in the attachment I provided. We changed the styling of the detail page which has addressed this problem.

    Interesting. Given what I'm seeing in our dev environment, I suspect we have already made this improvement and you'll see it in the upcoming release. I'll confirm this and follow up on this suggestion.

    Jim, This is from the submittal detail. Your dev environment does not look like production.

    Jim what you showed on your screen shot is not what is happening.  When a document is dropped into the Submittal or RFI in the attachment field it only shows so much and then it shows ... like the title is longer but won't carry down to another line like yours is showing.  This is causing major confusion because you can't even hover over it to see what the name is.

    Can you include a screenshot? Are you describing a problem from the detail view of RFI or Submittal, or from the register? Here is a Submittal detail view in our development environment.

    This is causing a big problem for our users. Seems like an easy fix that needs to be done asap.
