Description
New Issue Checklist
- I am not disclosing a vulnerability.
- I am not just asking a question.
- I have searched through existing issues.
- I can reproduce the issue with the latest versions of Parse Server and Parse Dashboard.
Issue Description
The tap that opens when clicking the "Manage Columns" menu has a fixed size and therefore cuts off long column names.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a column in a class that is longer than the width of the "Manage Columns" tab
- Open the "Manage Columns" tab
Actual Outcome
Column name is cut off
Expected Outcome
Tab should adapt its width to fit the longest column name, maybe up to a max width, and only then truncate the name.
Environment

- Parse Dashboard version: 3.2.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the Dashboard's "Manage Columns" tab with a column name longer than the tab width, then locate the tab's UI implementation. Done means the tab can accommodate the longest name up to a maximum width and truncates only beyond that limit.
