Description

kafka-ui v0.6.2

Thanks for the continued work on the project, we use it all the time ;-)

We have some topics that have long names ( > 60 characters). The UI truncates these and appends .... (even though we can resize the screen so there is loads of whitespace between topic name and the partition count column.

Is there a way to configure the length that truncation occurs at please ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the UI component rendering topic names in the frontend codebase, likely in a React component. Search for CSS properties such as 'text overflow: ellipsis' or 'white space: nowrap' that cause truncation. Review the issue comments for any suggested approaches or maintainer feedback. Consider adding a configuration option to the settings to allow users to set a custom truncation length or disable it entirely.
