I was under the impression that you could click on the last letter and press the down arrow to view the entire record.
It is text, how do you think we have reasons?The issue is the character limit which may not exceed 255 or whatever. It can not be changed as it is the maximum. You would have to use extra fields and this is a complicated process.
Isn't there a chance that you would redo the point history into datastreams, like Crap-head solved it on OCRP?
