Error description
The DataStage Designer and Director clients do not display full project names in the login dialog drop-down list, due to a long fully qualified server name. Project names are being cut off making project selection difficult. Developers cannot identify projects correctly due to part of the name not being visible in the list. Information Server 8.1
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of the DataStage Designer and Director clients logging on to projects on servers with long host names and/or where the project itself also has a long name **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When you drop-down the list of available projects from the Designer or Director login dialog, part of the overall project name (which is composed of the server name plus the project name, separated by a backslash) is truncated on the right. Consequently you may not be able to distinguish between projectswhich only differ by characters at the end of their names. **************************************************************** RECOMMENDATION: Install client-side patch JR32677 This change is included in 8.1 FP1 ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
Change the login dialog so that it is horizontally resizable, and the controls stretch with it. The size chosen is remembered between invocations.
Temporary fix
