Description

I'd like to see a couple of improvements in the nomad log reporting functionality. Mostly just user-experience improvements.

  1. Larger view. Currently in my mostly full-screen view the actual real-estate assigned to the log div content is about 58% of the window. I'd like that to have see that be the full div.row space instead. Maybe move the file-selector to a drop-down (though being able to see both files in one view would be amazing).
  2. Word-wrapping/breaking of the log lines to fit. I've got many log lines that run off to the side (thanks Java). It'd be wonderful to be able to wrap them.
div.content-file {
  white-space: pre-wrap;
  word-break: break-word;
}

Research direction
Locate the log view component in the codebase and apply the CSS changes suggested in the issue (white space: pre wrap; word break: break word;). Consider restructuring the layout to maximize the log div space, possibly moving the file selector to a dropdown or making it collapsible.
