Description Gaël de Chalendar (aka Kleag) 2022-10-13 14:48:31 UTC
SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Debug a C++ programm in kdevelop
2.  Stop and inspect variables

OBSERVED RESULT
If the variable name, type or value is very large, its column in the variables view resizes to show the whole string. The other columns are then hard to reach and view.

EXPECTED RESULT
The columns should be limited by the available place and a thin horizontal scrollbar should be drawn into the corresponding cell. Or a drop down arrow to show all the content in a popup text area.
