Increase the username field size in login screen
Body
Some users have a long userid like the complete e-mail address and sometimes they cannot fully see it while typing in a small field.
It may cause a typo and it's not comfortable for the users.
To increase the username field size in the login screen you should do the following steps:
1- In the MX Server, go to the following folder:
<maximo-folder>\applications\maximo\maximouiweb\webmodule\webclient\login
2- Open the 'login.jsp' file;
3- Find the the row:
<input <%= attrs %> class="isc-login-textfield" name="<%=userFieldName%>" id="<%=userFieldName%>" langcode="<%=langcode%>" type="text">
4- Include a size value in the end of this tag. E.g.:
<input <%= attrs %> class="isc-login-textfield" name="<%=userFieldName%>" id="<%=userFieldName%>" langcode="<%=langcode%>" type="text" size="100">
5- Save it;
6- Rebuild/Redeploy the Maximo EAR files.
7- Clear the browser cache and test it again.
