In the course of ticket [https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/36511
#36511] the layout of the changelist and it's filter sidebar has been
changed so that the sidebar seemling should have a fixed width of 240px.
The flex-base property does in this case not restrict the width of the
sidebar if it's content demands more (which happens eg. for dropdowns with
large titles). Combined with the flex: wrap attribute, the sidebar wraps
if the table also demands more width than available and looks broken (see
attachment).
This behavior can be simulated by giving a sidebar's and changelist's
children some fixed, large width:
{{{
#changelist-filter-extra-actions {
width: 290px;
}
#toolbar {
width: 1000px;
}
}}}
The problem could be resolved by reverting to the previous flex layout but
the motivation for those changes is unclear to me from the ticket and
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/19659 related pr].
Should the width of the sidebar stick to 240px or - at it has been before
- should the sidebar grow if necessary?
Are there any advantages to the current flex layout?
