# Button Text Display Fix Summary ## Problem Solved ✅ The 1-row high buttons were the correct height, but the text content wasn't showing due to padding and alignment issues. ## Root Cause When buttons were reduced from 3 rows to 1 row: - **Default padding** was preventing text from fitting in the reduced space - **Content alignment** wasn't optimized for 1-row display - **Label length** was too long for compact buttons - **Minimum width** was too large for efficient space usage ## Solution Applied ### 1. Removed Button Padding **Before:** ```css #filter-bar Button { height: 1; /* Default padding took up space */ } ``` **After:** ```css #filter-bar Button { height: 1; padding: 0; /* Remove padding to fit text in 1 row */ text-align: center; /* Center text in button */ line-height: 1; /* Ensure text fits in 1 row */ } ``` ### 2. Compact Label Format **Before:** - Labels like: `"2. CH10-Data (1105)"` (20+ characters) - Spaces between elements - Full frame type names **After:** - Labels like: `"2.CH10(1105)"` (12 characters) - No spaces for compactness - Abbreviated frame type names ### 3. Frame Type Abbreviations Implemented smart abbreviations to fit in 1-row buttons: | Full Name | Abbreviation | Button Label Example | |-----------|--------------|---------------------| | CH10-Data | CH10 | `2.CH10(1105)` | | PTP-Signaling | PTP-S | `3.PTP-S(240)` | | PTP-FollowUp | PTP-F | `4.PTP-F(56)` | | PTP-Sync | PTP | `5.PTP(89)` | | UDP | UDP | `6.UDP(443)` | | TMATS | TMATS | `7.TMATS(15)` | | CH10-Multi-Source | Multi | `8.Multi(8)` | ### 4. Reduced Button Width **Before:** `min-width: 12;` (for longer labels) **After:** `min-width: 10;` (for compact labels) ### 5. Optimized Text Rendering **Before:** ```css content-align: center middle; /* Didn't work well for 1-row */ ``` **After:** ```css text-align: center; /* Better for 1-row text */ line-height: 1; /* Ensures text fits exactly */ ``` ## Visual Result ### Before Fix (text not visible): ``` [ ][ ][ ] ``` ### After Fix (text visible): ``` [1.Overview] [2.CH10(1105)] [3.UDP(443)] [4.PTP-S(240)] ``` ## Test Results ✅ ``` ✅ Button height set to 1 row ✅ Button padding removed ✅ Text centered in button ✅ Minimum width reduced for compact labels ✅ Overview button uses compact format: '1.Overview' ✅ Frame type abbreviations working correctly ✅ Text now visible in TUI: " 1.Overview " displayed on line 12 ``` ## Benefits Achieved 1. **Visible Text** - Buttons now display their labels properly 2. **Compact Design** - Maximum information in minimum space 3. **Better UX** - Users can see what each button does 4. **Consistent Layout** - All buttons follow same compact format 5. **More Screen Space** - 1-row buttons free up 2 additional rows for data ## Technical Implementation ### Files Modified - `filtered_flow_view.py`: Updated CSS and button label generation ### Key Changes - **FrameTypeButton class**: Added `_shorten_frame_type()` method - **CSS updates**: Removed padding, added text alignment, reduced width - **Label format**: Changed from `"2. CH10-Data (1105)"` to `"2.CH10(1105)"` - **Overview button**: Changed from `"1. Overview"` to `"1.Overview"` ### Backward Compatibility ✅ - All keyboard shortcuts still work (1-9,0 for filtering) - Same functionality, just more compact display - Button click behavior unchanged - Frame type detection unchanged ## Usage The buttons now display clearly in a single row: - **1.Overview** - Shows all flows across all frame types - **2.CH10(1105)** - Shows flows with CH10-Data frames (1105 total packets) - **3.UDP(443)** - Shows flows with UDP frames (443 total packets) - **4.PTP-S(240)** - Shows flows with PTP-Signaling frames (240 total packets) Users can immediately see: - **Hotkey number** (1, 2, 3, etc.) - **Frame type** (abbreviated for space) - **Total packet count** in parentheses - **Button order** by packet count (highest first) ## Performance Impact - **No performance change** - Same data processing - **Slightly faster rendering** - Less text to render per button - **Better space efficiency** - More data visible on screen The button text display issue is now completely resolved! 🎯
