Reproduce issue #1027 in Binary Ninja on Windows 10 with a function that has many parameters, then trace the disassembly view's function-signature row. Done means the row can be resized or the parameter list is shortened with an ellipsis so it no longer obscures most of the view.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Component: UI Effort: Medium Impact: Medium UI: Linear

The problem is as described in the title. If the function has many parameters, the top row, showing the function signature, takes more than half of my screen.
An option to resize that row would be perfect, otherwise, just ... instead of parameters will also work.
