Hello! Apologies if there is already a topic for this (I could not find one), or if this is already fixed in a newer release.
SonarQube version: “Data Center Edition v9.9.7 (build 96285)”
I’ve come across some bad UX on our company-wide sonarqube deployment that I wanted to share. Specifically, on the Project Analysis Token generator form (My Account → Security, select “Project Analysis Token” as the token type).
At our company, our GitLab projects are nested in multiple levels of groups, so their paths are quite long, and often share the same 30-40 character long prefix. The part of the path that I can identify the project by (its name) is at the end. However, the path string is too long to be fully displayed in the “Project” dropdown menu, so the end is cut off. The end is also cut off when I select a project. I can’t hover over a project to view its full path in a tooltip or something. The full project path is not visible anywhere. The only way I found to view it is to look for the dropdown item’s HTML element in the browser devtools (not exactly optimal from a UX perspective).
I imagine this might be a problem elsewhere on the SonarQube UI too, but I don’t actually use the UI much, so this was the only place I’ve encountered it thus far.
I can’t share screenshots of what I’m talking about unfortunately, without exposing project names and stuff, which I would rather avoid doing. I hope my description of my issue was clear enough.
Thanks!
