This bug is for TPRS test case# 165. The string is ok and the correct # of arguments are being used. It appears the progress dialog (ProgressMonitorDialog) label is truncating instead of wrapping over multiple lines. This can be shown by just doing a Checkout As Project with a very long project name. In this case oddly all you get is "Checking out". Experimenting with boundary cases of project name lengths shows that if the name is short enough it gets printed. Moving to UI for investigation re: ProgressMonitorDialog. Also reducing severity since its not a string translation issue (was "critical"). Reworded title to match above. Old title was: TVT2: Variable {1} not replaced Should ensure progress dialog has at least two lines available for the message, and wraps the message as needed. *** Bug 21591 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fix is in ProgressMonitorDialog Released only in 201 stream. Released in the HEAD stream as well. Fix released in both streams (201 and HEAD) Although the message is wrapped, the last line is clipped. On which build do you see the clipping? Here is the dialog from build 20021001 showing no clipping. Please give window settings if you still see this (attachment to follow). Created attachment 2142 [details]

The ProgressMonitorDialog is designed to have 2 lines of text like the TitleAreDialog does - users with longer messages as a result of long paths need a truncation strategy. We need to make a truncation strategy for general use within the workbench as this is a common issue. Renaming PR. There are no plans for the UI team to work on this defect until higher priority items are addressed. There are currently no plans to work on this feature |
