Magnolia CMS: Dialogs too wide

I have here a magnolia 6.2.3 installation where the edit dialogs are too wide (full screen width):

full width edit dialog

I compared the markup with the markup from demo author and noticed that some css classes are missing. It looks good when i add the medium class to the root node of the markup.

How do I get magnolia to render the correct markup?

My guess was that I am using an outdated widgetset, but the magnolia-vaadin-widgetset-pro:6.2.3 is used.

More information:

It is a migration from 5.5.8 to 6.2.3. It affects all Magnolia 5 UI dialogs also system dialogs. It does not occur in the new Magnolia 6 UI apps like pages-app or dam.

See for example from the About Magnolia app: Jira login in dialog Markup: enter image description here

As a counterexample, the same dialog from the demo instance: enter image description here

Edit2:

Ok, it seems to be a problem with the specific Magnolia version. I can recreate the problem with mgnl jumpstart -m 6.2.3. With 6.2.4 the problem does not occur anymore. Unfortunately an update is no option, I will invest a few more hours to find a solution.

Solution

  • The problem was with the specific Magnolia version.

    It can be easily reproduced with mgnl jumpstart -m 6.2.3.

    Who can should update. It seems to be fixed in 6.2.4.

    Unfortunately I can not update my project. The most painful problem (description fields in the dialogs are not readable) I could fix by updating magnolia-vaadin-widgetset-pro to 6.2.4.
