Description

Currently, tables with long text entries in columns are difficult to display comprehensively because they take up a lot of space.

Proposed feature:
Introduce a "Wrap Column" function that allows users to activate a preview mode for long text entries. In this mode, only the first few lines of the text are visible in the column, while the full content is displayed when the user clicks on the entry.

Use case

For example, when managing a table with task descriptions or notes, long text entries can make the table overly wide and hard to navigate. By displaying only a preview of the text, users can maintain a compact table view while still accessing the full content when needed: this feature would help optimize table layouts and enhance usability for content-heavy applications.
