Research direction

Reproduce the issue by opening a configuration file containing a resource with a long description, then locate the UI component that renders that description. Confirm the current truncation behavior and update it so the full text can be viewed through wrapping or scrolling. Done means long descriptions are no longer inaccessible in the UI.
