Better support for long values #41418
Comments
Pinging @elastic/datavis (Feature:ElasticCharts) |
+1 on this...especially if paired with #95079 on line charts |
Since there's already a discussion about truncating labels, maybe we can discuss the opposite in this issue: How can we show the full label without truncation?
cc @markov00 any ideas on how to show very long text in the legend? |
All these are viable options, together with the "central" truncation I'd also like to add another point of view about this issue: is there a way to simplify and reduce those very long texts? there are situations where not all the text brings useful information and can be simplified. |
@markov00 About your re-mapping idea - I think it's a cool approach if we can make it easy to configure (or even working without any user intervention). However I can't really imagine how it look like - you probably still need the |
Right, that part can probably be pushed to the chart title for example. |

With elastic/elastic-charts#1285 we now have a clear picture of how we can address this issue (enable multi line legends). This does not exclude other solution ideas represented in the elastic-charts legends meta issue which will be tracked separately. We did attempt the middle Requirements for this issue (please edit these if we change our mind)
CC @stratoula & @MichaelMarcialis, this is a high priority for 7.15 |
@stratoula the required changes are now in |
Thanx @nickofthyme! I will check what we can do and discuss it with @MichaelMarcialis |
Often in beats the field names are very long with more than 10 characters, in these cases, it is hard to recognize the fields in the visualization, dashboard and discover
see legend in this image:
Many times users can see the complete field name if hovering on the field but it takes too long for the tooltip to appear and it only shows one field where sometimes users need to compare between fields with only a few characters differ in their names
A way to present either prefix sufix or something in the middle which will help read these fields
In the example above it would have been more helpful to see
intra-per...v5q28
,infra-per..v8k64
In addition, if the tooltip will appear faster on hovering will help as well
