There are a number of posts out there about unused white space and/or truncated field views, but I want to call specific attention to the Customer Portfolio widget.

As an admin, all the backend areas where white space and/or truncated field views are incredibly frustrating - but it’s especially frustrating in front-end areas for end users. 

The Customer Portfolio widget in particular is frustrating

Below, I’m showing a CP widget with only four columns and the Service Delivery Tier field still doesn’t show the full contents - and when you hover over it is it at least 3 seconds before the actual value appears.  Of course I would normally have more columns than this, but just making a point of how ridiculous this truncation is.  Columns in this widget (and in all tablular reports) should dynamically expand to show the full contents without having to hover - the exception being Rich Text fields that may contain a lot of data.

 

Customer Portfolio is the only place we currently have where end users can make in-line dashboard edits, so they use this a lot. PLEASE address this ASAP and make it easier for end users to make quick assessments of the data without the added effort.

@anirbandutta I intentionally created this as a separate post from the one below because my fear is that this will get lumped into one big project focused on white space/truncation across the whole platform (which is needed!) and that will take years to resolve.
 

The initial focus, IMO, should be on fixing this in end user-facing areas first. 

Sure, I’ll relay this input over to our design teams… and like you mention, whitespace feedback is indeed being consolidated platform-wide.

I also standardized the tag whitespace for all these posts.
