Process lists do not scale

XMLWordPrintable

      Description of problem:
      In both the Process Definitions and the Instances perspectives, there is a list of items. This list is set to contain 10 items per page and at the bottom, there are pager buttons to browse through more. If your browser window is smaller, the list still contains 10 items per page, even if this number doesn't fit on the page.
      In Process Instances, there is a vertical scrollbar in such a case that allows you to get to lower items.
      In Process Definitions, you have no such choice now, there is no scrollbar.

      If there is a list with pages, it doesn't make sense to keep the number of items fixed, resulting in another 'paging' mechanism being needed. Especially if that other mechanism isn't available in one perspective.

      Ideally, there would be no need for a vertical scrollbar. The number of items would be decided dynamically, according to the page dimensions. As an easier solution, we could allow the user to choose how many items to display on each page.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      BPMS 6.0 ER2
