Pad strings in status bar to prevent reformatting#188
Merged
Conversation
Currently there are different-length strings for parameters, such as `On` and `Off`. When you switch options, the bottom status bar reformats. This is a worse user experience, so this diff pads the bottom status line so that it never reformats. The included videos show the end result.
