Question

Allow customizing the height for custom widgets

Hello,
 

I am running into a height limitation for external (custom) widgets. Any widget, regardless of the amount of actual contents, seems to be boxed in an iframe of about 175 pixels height. No amount of css or other styling seems to overcome this value. First-pass investigation seems to indicate the height might be hard-coded in the Codebeamer code, not even configurable server-side.
 

This is drastically limiting the usefulness of any widget, as most contents will be either cut off or require vertical scrolling (e.g. charts etc). Example: a wiki dashboard widget, the plot requires scrolling vertically.

 

 

The native widgets seem to be far more flexible in adjusting to their contents’ height.

 

edit: I have followed the steps outlined in this Codebeamer 3.2 guide, and used chart.js to draw the chart.
