Hi All,

How can I increase the number of characters displayed in a free from filter?

I have a filter that displays names in a drop down list. Whenever the name exceeds an a pre-defined number of characters an ellipsis is automatically added to the string to signify that there are additional characters. This behavior is expected, but when I hover over the string to show entire name, the text is not displayed. How can I solve this issue?

Here is an example:

Hi @roberte,

At present the filter dropdown doesn’t provide a hover-over tooltip for truncated values (I’ll mark this as a feature request). Are you able to make the filter drop-down control wider to accommodate the widest text?

Many Thanks,
Andrew
