Screenshot of printerlist with truncated printer names
SUMMARY
I have several print queues with fairly long names that only differ in their
suffix, like
Bureau_Lade2_Duplex_Plain
Bureau_Lade2_Duplex_Film
These names won't fully fit in the printer list in System Settings and hence
it's hard to distinguish them. I also can't widen the list to see the full
names. This makes is harder than necessary to select the proper printer.
Particularly as there is plenty of space on my screen to widen the full System
Settings window and/or the printer list widget.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create multiple printer queues with long names
2. Open System Settings->Printers
3. Widen the System Settings window
OBSERVED RESULT
After step 2. the list of printers is presented, but the printer names are
truncated.
Attempting to widen the window as suggested in step 3. doesn't make a
difference.
EXPECTED RESULT
When there's enough room, just display the printer names in full or allow the
user to widen the list.
