      Issue Summary

      If the value of single/multi select custom field is too long it is truncated and difficult to read. It is more problematic when values of custom field has same prefix.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a custom field of type "single select" or "multi select"
      2. Add list of similar options.
      3. Add the field to screens.
      4. Now edit an existing where fields created in step#1 is present.

      As we can see in the example screenshot below it difficult to identified the value of each options.

       

      Suggestion:

      On the create issue screen the custom field values get wrapped to next line. It will be good if similar word wrapping is implemented for the Edit Screen as well

      Workaround:

      We have an option to expand the side bar which contains the Context fields. Once done the full name will be visible.
