The width of the menu can be easily modified in template/yoga/menubar.css by reducing the quantity of em for #menubar width (and don't forget to reduce the left-margin of #content in template/yoga/content.css).

Concerning the font-size, I personnaly set it to 80% in template/yoga/default-layout.css for #BODY

But I think the difference between old and new default template is too important.
Who decides what are default values ? Template creator/designer ( yoDan or chrisaga ?) ?

Concerning #menubar width, yoDan had set it to 14em and I set it to 22em as said in this previous post. Chrisaga agreed. The problem comes from the fixed width of the #menubar while it was elastic in previous table based template. For my personnal use, I have a deep category tree and 14em is far too small.

Concerning the font-size width, the W3C decided. yoDan only set to 100%. This is the normal size on internet.

hmm, I would like to see what does the template look like with 14em width and a large tree. Wrap or crop ?

the #menubar text exceeds limits

Merci chrisaga, j'ai mis à jour le suivi du bug :-)

Est-ce qu'il y a des choses urgentes/importantes à faire sur le template (avant la doc qui explique comment tout customiser ;-) ?

translation: are there emergencies concerning template "yoga"

First, you should read the blog entry I wrote about first tests on 1.5.0RC1 and what users tell about it: Démarrage QA en branche 1.5 (french)

The template is the main topic about release 1.5.0RC1.
