by ADMIN 34 views

Introduction

In this article, we will be discussing a bug that affects the user interface (UI) of a workspace when it is in the "deletion pending" state. The bug causes the text on the status badge to overflow, resulting in a visually unappealing and potentially confusing experience for users. We will explore the current behavior, relevant log output, expected behavior, steps to reproduce the issue, and the environment in which it occurs.

Current Behavior

When a workspace is in the "deletion pending" state, the text on its status badge overflows. This is evident from the provided image, which shows the status badge with the text extending beyond its boundaries.

Image

The overflow of text on the status badge can be attributed to the limited space available within the badge. As a result, the text is not contained within the boundary of the badge, making it difficult for users to read and understand the status of the workspace.

Relevant Log Output

The provided log output is empty, indicating that there are no relevant logs available for this issue. However, it is essential to note that log output can be a valuable resource in debugging and troubleshooting issues. In this case, the lack of log output may hinder our ability to identify the root cause of the issue.

Expected Behavior

The expected behavior is that the text should be contained within the boundary of the status badge. This would ensure that the text is readable and easily understandable by users. Ideally, the issue should be fixed quickly to prevent any further inconvenience to users.

Steps to Reproduce

To reproduce the issue, follow these steps:

  1. Create a workspace: Create a new workspace using the application.
  2. Set the dormancy and autodeletion thresholds low: Set the dormancy and autodeletion thresholds to low values to trigger the "deletion pending" state.
  3. Mark it as dormant via the API: Alternatively, use the API to mark the workspace as dormant.
  4. View workspace listing page: View the workspace listing page to observe the status badge with the overflowing text.
