What kinds of options do I encounter while facing a dropdown menu, which is so wide that the menu width adjusts Is not possible for? That means the page breaks the layout, or looks just ugly if the dropdown is adjusted to fit for a long time.
Hooks? Cut plus full hover text?
Thank you. I agree with Gordonby in relation to reducing options can be difficult to read. Extremely long alternatives,
And as you said it looks awful.
If your dropdown is populated by user input, however, I can restrict length. What can be said with 15 words should be said with 5 ... If this can not happen, then maybe a dropdown is not your best choice. For example, if your option is the title of research papers and their authors, you can probably summarize them in some key words ("String Theory and You [Brown 2008]") On the other hand, if the option itself is different from some words And that is, if they become smaller (like "peanut butter and grapefruit sauce and jelly sandwich of grapes with soy milk" and "peanut butter and boy Saberi jelly carrot rods and sandwiches with 2% milk) "You may be able to display all the options alternately, display it properly with a checkbox or radio button.
(If you are using ASP.NET, basically I'm using a criminal instead of a dropdown list)
This second approach gives you other elements You can also allow to include that you will not be able to dropdown. Take a look for ideas.
