Screenshot of the 'Synchronize' view to describe the complaint.

Now the content description isn't really a problem (though I hope it won't be a problem or we don't need to truncate it anymore once bug 145557 is resolved) but I think the text inside the view shouldn't be truncated given the large amount of space that's there.

I haven't looked at the code but I'm pretty sure that there is a limitation saying "truncate all label longer than x chars". I agree with Remy that we could make it a little bit more sophisticated, on the other hand displaying all names for all selected projects/folders could clutter the Sync View. imo a message saying "No changes for 3 selected projects and 2 folders" won't work either. What about simple "No changes in any of the selected resources/projects"?

That sounds straightforward enough.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
