Problems with the translation page layout was created by davebostockgmail
Version 3.17.7+190627

When I go into the quick translation page to overlay the survey with another language everything seems ok ... as per image 1 .... however when I go to the question page the other language box is small and pushed off the page.

I think this is due to the length of the question text .. this is because I use quite a lot of scripts in the questions and in one case to create a lookup question ...this needs to be in there but it means that the translation page layout is totally useless. Image 2

Is there any setting in the CSS or template file I can use to address this?

Thanks in advance as always
Dave

Maybe there are an issue in LimeSurvey

1. «I use quite a lot of scripts» : in my opinion question text must be filtered in quick translation
2. to the length of the question text : even we specific part etc … this muts not happen …

I have found out what the issue is with this ... it is that the screen is controlled by the length of the question text.

I had an equation question in there with a lot of conditions ...
Q2=If(Q1_A=="Y",1,if(Q1_B=="Y",2 ....... if(Q1_Z=="Y",26}}}}}}}}}} etc.

This seems to have been interpreted as one word and there was no split to adjust the screen size in term of columns... adding in a newline in the source code has corrected the issue.

To my mind this is still a bug as the original text should have a limit to allow the translation target box to be shown.

I will leave it on the bug tracker and update with this.
