This has been discussed on #coop-cloud-tech:autonomic.zone.

There is no ... to show anything is truncated.

A vertical layout may be more ideal. @fauno shared the \G trick:

My preference: just use the vertical layout (like the deploy screen). Don't bother with an option between table or vertical. Putting ... into the table layout might involve fucking around with the internals of the renderer so I'm not keen.

As we're talking layout here anyways, I'd copy over my thoughts on it from Matrix:

I'd vote for putting the Status column next to the Image column, maybe even between Service and Image as those are values I look often at in exactly this context. With many services for an app, it gets difficult to not get lost in the lines
Also the information densitity is a lot higher in the previous layout. I like that you put the Version and Chaos in the table, but maybe we could give it its own row, as its the same across the whole app?

see previous and current layout attached.

Edit: Also made a quick paint draft to visualize what I imagine

tysm @simon i'll get back to you on this. really appreciate the feedback. i think it'd be good to get in your adjustments in the release candidate. (and I would still postpone the vertical layout refactor)

refactor!: status between service/image #516

decentral1se commented

I'm actually gonna close this off also because in the upcoming RC we have:

wrapping in the cells, so you don't have truncation at all
width based on terminal size, with preference for 79 chars
"status" shown between service/image

It is possible to show truncation via #513 (comment) but I chose for wrapping. We can change that if people think it is better to wrap.

The vertical layout can come later if people still think the overview is not ideal. Or we need more information.

See also #513.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!
