Minor page rendering / column wrapping problem.

Using openSUSE-CMS style I often see text misalignment, icons truncated or text wrapping oddly within the page columns.

As can be seen in these examples.

I don’t know if it’s a layout problem with the style or a rendering problem with Firefox, although I’m not seeing it on any other forums I use.

What’s your browser width? Try stretching it out and seeing if the
wrapping doesn’t go away.

OK… Thanks, width related it seems to be. Do you know if the openSUSE-CMS style assumes a minimum display width?

It could be a problem with ‘Tree Style Tab’, a Firefox extension I’m using. I’ll temporarily disable it for a few days and see how it goes.

It can start wrapping below 1000 px wide, depending on page content,
but it’s still functional.

Thanks … all rather strange, and probably not worth investigating on your part.

Just for information:

My normal set-up is Firefox maximised on a 1280px width display, the ‘Tree Style Tab’ extension reduces that to 1060px.

With that I see the problem on the openSUSE forums … but not on, for example, any of these:

http://www.world-designs.co.uk/forum/
http://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/
http://www.strat-talk.com/forum/
http://photography-on-the.net/forum/

which all use vBulletin software. (Nor am I seeing it on forums using phpBB or SMF software).

Disabling ‘Tree Style Tab’ so the page renders in the full 1280px width I don’t get the problem. Nor do I by reducing the size of the Firefox window to <1280px, even taking the width down to around 600px it’s still OK.

Firefox + Tree Style Tab + openSUSE-CMS, so far as I’ve established, is the only case when I’ve seen it happen.

We use vBulletin but our default style is custom and not used by anyone
else.
