I'm using a saved search and added it to a dashboard. In the search I imported on the dashboad. The message body is not completely visible. When I expand the event I can see the complete message body. Is there a way I can see the complete message body in the saved search too without expanding it.

The saved search, the message body is incomplete. If I expand the event, the complete message can be seen.

Found the way to increase the size of the message being displayed by modifying the truncate:maxHeight and setting it to 0 to be able to display the entire message.
