Use the Max Length field on your field dictionary

@priyarao 

increasing the max length won't be good user experience as client might come with some choice value which is 80/100 characters and it won't be looking good on UI.

So I won't recommend increasing that although this is possible as per comment from Anirudh.

You should inform your business team about the User Experience.

Hello Ankur,

True, but my choices are just 60 characters now. So it is working good.

@priyarao 

No worries.

I was just mentioning this point that updating OOB dictionary fields is not best practice unless it is very much required.
