Description

-TensorBoard version: github master
-TensorFlow version: tf-nightly
-Python version: 2.7

The profile plugin run metadata shows weird word breaking. In the first screenshot, a_large_long_long_long_long.... name is showed as long_lon...
In the third screenshot, another long name is showed as empty string.

This typically happens when switching from one run to the other. I also noticed some glitch when switching.

Research direction

Start at the profile plugin's run metadata dropdown and reproduce the issue with the long run names shown in the screenshots, especially when switching between runs. Trace the rendering and switching behavior to determine why names are truncated or displayed as empty strings. Done means long names render consistently without the reported visual glitch when changing runs.
