How to widen priorty field in Create Issue to show a long priority name?

[Philip Schlesinger]

We have four types of priority values:

* 1 Disaster / Site Down / Site at Risk of Going Down

* 2 ​Revenue at risk / no easy workaround

* 3 Revenue Generation or Revenue at Risk With Workaround

* 4 Feature or stability improvements

Those display just fine in Issue View, but when trying to create an issue, the priority text is truncated:

How do I widen the priority field to display the entire text of the priorities?

Our priority descriptions are not showing, why? Can I configure to show them somewhere?

Should the pictures be in any specific format, like .png? We have .jpg.

You'd need to use Chrome and Inspect the select element. Find the Javascript that sets the width for that element and override it. Sorry not to be more specific but the exact code changes with Jira instances.

If you give the priority options a description value when they are defined, you might get lucky in newer versions of Jira and see the description appear as a hover box when you hover over the value
