Description
As shown in the attached screenshot:
- The text input for a UUID field in the admin is too narrow to display the entire UUID. Adding
class="vTextField"solves the issue — even though that doesn't sound like the greatest semantic markup. - I would find it more readable if the admin showed UUIDs with dashes, like
str(uuid)in Python. (Depending on what's need to make that change, it may raise backwards compatibility questions.)
The second screenshot shows what I'd like the field to look like.
