Hi Colleagues!  
First of all I created community question:

> **[Size of "Select List (multiple choices)" field](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Size-of-quot-Select-List-multiple-choices-quot-field/qaq-p/854513)**
>
> Good afternoon Colleagues! Is there a legal way to increase the default width of Select List (multiple choices) field on the sub-task created screen? Long values do not fit in it. Step to reproduce: 1. Create field with type above and...

Then I raised support ticket JSP-406481 and then [JRASERVER-67962] ([[JRASERVER-67962] Long select list values appears to be cut off when creating sub-tasks but not when creating issues - Create and track feature requests for Atlassian products.](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-67962)) was raised.

The point is: When I create a sub-task the size of “Select List (multiple choices)” field is not well. If I edit sub-task or create a task all is ok.  
Steps to reproduce are in the links mentoined above.

Here is only one question: Is there a possible workaround to avoid this? Maybe a small change in html or css?

With kind regards  
Vyacheslav
