Category sets panel displaying "..." instead of some categories' names

Post by gonefinishing »

Title says it all: I'd created some other sets and everything was fine - until I created this one called 'Colours' and do as I may, some of the categories's name won't simply show up and all I get ellipsis (...) instead of their proper names - no matter how I position it on the screen (or resize it) - either docked along the other panels on the left, or floating as it is in the screenshot...

Apart from the only two showing ("Black & white" and "pink)" the others consist of just colour names (blue, red, green, etc) - so, no dice about the reticence being used, as one might expect, whenever said categories' names are too long. It just seems to be an arbitrary choice unrelated to how long a category's name is.

Worth of note is that, when I began all the sets creation, my option I was choosing 'hierarchical categories' and TBH, there was a category called 'Farmland' in another set, which was yielding the same reticence - until I just renamed it again to "farm" and it's retifyied itself since. So, though I suspected the color categories' names might be conflicting with the Color Labels' names, thanks to this last example, that turned out no to be the case.

Worth of note is that I tried the same configuration on Linux and everything was fine.
The screenshot above is of my Windows 11 machine.
