Extend text field for selected answer in the quiz matching activity

[carol_walsh]

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

The text field for the selected answer for matching activities is not wide enough. While a student can select a matching answer and see it in full in the dropdown list, they can't see it in full when they are reviewing their answers before submitting, as the text field is too small.

Can we make it wider?

I noticed you had also commented on this idea, as well:

The requests seem to be similar, but yours seems to emphasize the student POV.

Yes I guess they are similar but this one is definitely for the students to be able to see what they have selected before submitting it.

Panda-Cat: A mythical creature that we dreamed up to catch your attention, make you laugh, and encourage you to keep reading the explanation of our archive process for Feature Ideas

Archive: An archived Feature Idea is not dead forever, but it has been taken out of stage progression.  When Community members submit feature ideas they are reviewed by the Community Team and then put to a vote by the community at large.  If the idea does not receive 100 votes within 3 months it will be archived.  Ideas that reach the 100 vote threshold within the first three months remain open for voting. Find more information about this process at How does the voting process work for feature ideas?

Can archived ideas still become a feature?  Yes.  Some feature ideas that do not receive 100 votes are resubmitted by Community members and find more supporters as people's needs change, rising more quickly to the top.  Oftentimes archived feature ideas are evaluated in groups when we are preparing to refactor a particular tool or feature of Canvas and may still influence product direction.
