Linking Dictionary terms with Data-Entity leads to overflow. about odd-platform

[AndreyNenashev]

It happens because of generated markdown html markup.
Github comments markdown example:

this is just a text - "some text"

this is a markdown:

very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words. very long line with multiple words.

It generates single inline block because in a markdown editor I didn't specify new lines explicitly inside the text. Unfortunately, we didn't consider that this block could contain a large amount of markdown text so it doesn't adjust well in these cases. So I will prepare some fix during this week. But long markdown blocks will have their scrolls anyway like in the example below. It just will not affect the whole layout anymore.

@mavenzer Thanks for noticing! The term name is too long and we didn't consider that case, so it's a html makrup issue.
There are two options I see:

1. To truncate the term name if a name is too long.
2. Put description of a term under the name.

How is crucial for you to see the whole term name? It feels like option 2 is the most optimal solution here.

Hi @AndreyNenashev thanks for the prompt response. You are absolutely correct that option 2 looks more optimal to me as well. One more minor observation: the definition of dictionary terms when linked to data-entity, we are getting a scroll bar. But ideally we should go to a new line after a certain length rather than using a scroll bar(much more visually IMO). It makes the terms definition more readable to the business users.

Thanks a lot for the explanation the above fix is also more intuitive as well.
