Hello everybody,

I am trying to do something in the Kibana dashboard but i am not sure is it possible.  
Could you please give me some infos, how i could do that, if it is possible.

Has you can see below in the picture, the WAS\_MESSAGE could be very long.

Question 1 : Is it possible to show only the first line in the "Data Table" and when we click on, the full message appears.

Question 2 : Is it possible to highlight a part of the WAS\_MESSAGE ?  
For exemple : I want to highlight the end of the first line, not depending from the query.

Hope i was clear.

Thanks in advance.

Yves

i don't think any of the above is possible, but they both look like reasonable feature requests. Could you please open an issue for this on [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues) ? thanks!
