Description Owen Leonard 2020-07-24 15:58:49 UTC
Browser support of the CSS calc() function is broad enough that we can use it to prevent the datepicker icon from wrapping below the form field.

Bug 26061: Improve style of sidebar datepickers

This patch makes a small change to the staff interface CSS so that
datepicker form fields in sidebar forms don't force the datepicker icon
onto a second line.

The change uses the CSS calc() function to specify that form fields with
a .hasDatepicker class (dynamically added by jqueryUI) have a width of
100% minus 20 pixels, leaving room for the datepicker icon.

To test, apply the patch and rebuild the staff interface CSS
(https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Working_with_SCSS_in_the_OPAC_and_staff_interface).

- View a page in the staff interface which has a datepicker field in a
  sidebar form and confirm that the icon stays on the same line as the
  firm field at varying browser widths. Examples:

  - Reports -> Saved SQL reports
  - Circulation -> Overdues
  - Acquisitions -> Late orders

I think this is a good improvement, but I wonder if those date fields wouldn't look a little nicer if they were even a little shorter - at the moment they are very wide compared to date fields in other places (patron record for example).

The date fields in the sidebar are different than elsewhere because all form fields in the sidebar are styled to be the same width. I think this consistency looks good.
