Hi everyone,
I’m running into an issue with text truncation in list views in Configurable Workspace after upgrading to Zurich, and would appreciate some guidance.
The issue only happens when the field value is free text and not a reference link to a record.
In Xanadu (screenshot 1), the list shows the full value for fields like Name without truncation.
In Zurich (screenshot 2), the same field value is truncated in the list view.
Has anyone else encountered this after upgrading? Is there a configuration or workaround to display the full field value in the list in Configurable Workspace?
Thanks in advance!

Try to add the attribute no_truncate=true to the Attributes field of the dictionary record
If it's already there then raise a Case with ServiceNow so that they can investigate.

If its coming with Zurich, try submitting HI case with SN. They might already have a PRB records for this or probably a workaround as well.
Please mark the answer correct/helpful accordingly.

Check the sys_dictionary for the field corresponding to the table and add 'no_truncate=true'. Follow below knowledge article for more information
