[WWdevel] Re: [WWcvs] webwork2: changes to links subroutine: * sublists are now within list

[Michael G. <ga...@ma...>]

Hi Sam,

I have one complaint about how this looks -- in general I like how it  
behaves.
Can we lower the indent size for the lists on the left hand side?  It  
looks like
there are automatically 12 spaces
before the Classlist Editor, homework sets edit and so forth.  This  
seems like
a lot of screen real estate.  (I know most screens are large these  
days, so this is not
as crucial as it was 3 or 4 years ago, but stingy habits die  
hard. :-)  )

I dimly remember constructing this by hand with
  to minimize the width of the left margin.  Can we adjust the  
CSS specificiation
in this region to make the indent size for each of the lists 2 spaces  
instead of 4 or more?

-- Mike
