When doing Shift+R - TAB, the first two letters of each line are shown, the information seems to be there:

Me[ager Quarters]
Ur[ist McDwarf]
Ev[aluation:]
Me[ager Quarters]

View Building information shows no informations at all.

"Shift-R - TAB" issue has been fixed. (update title of bug to remove "Swap right panel" please)

"Shift-R - ENTER" issue has not been fixed. It's always a blank description.

I used a built chair to test. The chair is called "birchen Chair" in the list. Pressing ENTER just gives a blank screen with "birchen Chair" at the top (like the description of items). I would expect it to be the description of the chair or some info about the room or assignment.

Accessing the chair via "T: View items in menu" does show a description (brief obviously), so the chair has a description to show.

Besides the chair, the wagon and carpentry shop are in the list and have no text with "Shift-R - ENTER" as well.

Of course I would forget this:

I was testing in 0.34.03

The "View building information" only displays information for buildings with Design information - look at a furnace, trade depot, bridge, road, pump, water wheel, windmill, archery target, or well and it will show you the design and construction quality.

The right pane is supposed to display the building name, the owner (and spouse), and the evaluated quality by the owner/spouse (which might be higher if the room contains items that the owner specifically likes, such as preferred materials).

In version 0.34.11, stretching the window vertically seems to allow some of the text to show up - it appears to be using the game window's HEIGHT to restrict the right pane's WIDTH. A quick check confirms that this problem also appeared in version 0.28.181.40d, so in all likelihood it was introduced back in version 0.28.181.39f when custom grid sizes were first implemented. For some bizarre reason, though, it appeared to work just fine in version 0.31.25...
