Description

Describe the bug
In some languages the buttons get concatenated on the info pane. This may cause some confusion as to what the word is. The workaround is just to expand the info panel a bit, which will show the word.

To Reproduce
Open the app in Japanese. Look at the buttons on the info pane

Expected behavior
Buttons should be able to expand width to fit their text.

Research direction

Open XcodesApp in Japanese and inspect the info pane buttons described in the reproduction steps. Compare their layout with a language whose labels fit, then verify that the Japanese button text is no longer concatenated or clipped without manually expanding the panel.
