From opendistro-for-elasticsearch/trace-analytics#31:

On the Latency by trace group and other grids some columns are getting truncated at a fixed 24 characters
https://github.com/opendistro-for-elasticsearch/trace-analytics/search?q=_.truncate%28item

This can make it difficult to navigate when you have longer trace group names.

Example

In the above example the bottom two are
/api/v2/users/user/getuser
and
/api/v2/users/user/getuserprofile

Currently the only thing a user can do is click one and hope it's the one they're looking for.

Would it be possible to have it behave like text-overflow: ellipsis; so it will grow to the size of the text's container?
It would be great also if there could be a mouse-hover tooltip with the full text if it does need to truncate.
