Error description

  • PROBLEM:
    The Inbox Assignment does not wrap the description properly.
    The text is wrapping in a not predictive manner.
    
    PERFORMANCE ISSUE: No.
    
    STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
    1. Set system property webclient.portletwraplength to 70.
    2. Create a start center which fits to screen size (no need for
    scrolling).
    3. Add the inbox to the Start Center with columns Description,
    Due Date, Start Date, Application, Assigned Person Code
    4. Create a workflow on SR object with two assignment nodes for
    the current user.
    Description on task node
    :TICKETID-( :REPORTEDBYID )- :DESCRIPTION
    5. Route workflow on Change records to display inbox
    assignments.
    6. There is an issue with word wrapping
    Both the browser and extra line break are wrapping the
    description.
    Note on wider start centers which require scrolling, the text
    is wrapped correctly to 70.
    If the system property webclient.portletwraplength is changed
    to 0, the inbox description width is very wide and requires
    scrolling to read.
    
    CURRENT ERRONEOUS RESULT:
    The Inbox Assignment does not wrap the description properly.
    
    EXPECTED RESULT:
    The Inbox Assignment should wrap the description properly.
    
    ENVIRONMENT (SYSTEM INFO):
    TPAE 7.6.1.0-IFIX20190523-0748 Build 20180718-1141
