Manual journals - wrap titles in search menu
The new menu format makes it necessary to scroll across to see ANY details for journals with long titles, instead of being able to see everything at a glance. Either wrap the titles by default or give us a toggle option to do so.

Thanks so much for sharing this idea. We can see how being able to view long manual journal titles more easily would be helpful, especially when you're quickly scanning your journals.
We've moved your idea to Gaining Support so other customers can vote and add their feedback too. If anyone else would find wrapped titles, or a toggle to control this, helpful in Manual Journals, please add your support and share how it affects your workflow — those details are really useful for our team.
We really appreciate you taking the time to raise this with us and help improve Xero.

I would also add it isn't necessary for the 'New Manual Journal entry' to occupy the entire page. Frankly, it's annoying. It was more helpful to retain the navigation pane/tabs at the top of the page for easier navigation.

Jonathan - this is a pretty easy fix for a web developer, see my July 9 comments and screenshot here: https://productideas.xero.com/forums/967133-reports-tax/suggestions/50964163-manual-journals-journal-entry-number-listed#comments
The deeper issue is why this system doesn't index descriptions for lines in manual journals ... this would make 'search' the best option and lead to shorter titles.
here's hoping Xero cares enough to do either, or BOTH!
