Fixed width notes
@aday
Submitted by Allan Day Link to original bug (#751442)
Description
As a rule of thumb, lines of text shouldn't be more than 12 words long: after that, they become difficult to read. Paragraph structure also gets lost.
Currently, note text fills the enter width of the window, which means that lines are frequently too long. It also means that short notes can be constrained to the top of the window, which doesn't look very good.
My suggestion to deal with this issue is to:
- Constrain the note text to a maximum width.
- Increase the size of note text.
- Increase padding between lines and paragraphs (see bug 740338).
