I'm using Elasticsearch and Kibana version 7.6.1 and Vega version 4.3.0.

When I hover the data, it will show up the details but the value of policy is too long and does not show full name.

![C2C22264-3C9C-41E0-867F-0CA1379E0B2A_4_5005_c](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/4/04afb9c7894573dbad7851f9242c09c28dcbbd70.jpeg)

The code I added is below.

```auto
"tooltip":{"signal":"{policy:datum.type, count:datum.count}"}

```

How many characters is the policy? I tried with over 60 characters on [this example](https://vega.github.io/editor/#/url/vega/N4IgJAzgxgFgpgWwIYgFwhgF0wBwqgegIDc4BzJAOjIEtMYBXAI0poHsDp5kTykSALJQDMlAFYQ2AOxAAaEABM40AE40cmdjPQBBAARMkEGlANIVe2Ocx64ADyQIcAGziy9Adzow9xJM4Y4PWckJjhnCD0IGDYPKT0GHGk9BDYGCCCY0hVKORAvBXo0ADYABlL5eBoyLDQAJnL5HCQFBRopMjQAVnkFJEwUVABtUClHODQQAaZXPL8A5TQRkCh+8jYVAE9JnTzHNKlMeoAOeUx7I-QARjrhAS7igHZjgE5SvRu7h+e3j9v7p6vd6fAE-YH-b5Av5fQFvEAAX1koFW5zIG226AAQntUgxDt0elMLpMQZDfqTYeCYWDoaCoRSaQyoQikSs1mitpMAMI4g6XATCM7E64Qym0slUunk0WMmX0uW-FnI9noyYAEV5eMuLyuQrslxATOl1PlJuNUslEvFYqVbNRqvQAFFNfjUMddUT9SSFZaxUbfbKzQHmYjlfbOegAGIuy5dQWeg3+62Bi3J02ppO2lHrCMgADiMbQVxeesTPrT5qtSer5azKtzAAlC27HqXvUGK8HK37y5n4QBdAfyYxkMYRJajcaTTBsNjOTQ4Ob+QJoYCIkDSCcgOCkQ4QSYqOBQTCoXEZNjZPKJPrnSY3hgIW07uB7g9Hk9nuBpI7ya9rSZrgig79sOqyuPuwyTggEzoHY0D+BMZybDgMEgIYUgKHkChsMg7Sroo-SDFMoSzPIABmNDhJh6DZhy2zrioSAdKhBRFE0LRtB0aClJQpSEioBzUZgKiBKGIBjNBkybPBpGKDhSB4agoA3kR0yyRRVGTPsWosuJJgwcJgTyIxzGTFUNRHEOIBIHYiyQRuagvgaTBsNgOF5DJqFwWBExiRslGuiArhkT+ICeVJ4VWcgKgANYQcsmDIahh7HnkZECY+SkEQM04kb58gvlAbBKPhTlwCo+F2Ph4WweF5GUc41F2jm9HyKxMDVT5kzeQheTodRVzrhioA1SA0ldfVmnoNp+JDXUnW9eg429fI8wrqgpTwuuf63llFHOM4+FrahEDnOEMwrltlQXuV+H7YdWXHW+mFbVdoCJSh07EgVUhFSVWVlRVWX+NU2igE9NGA7phgZM47QweDy6oS5bmPuu91HUjkwAMTCHjCLbTgN4IyAVVZaNPWySOY7TrO87qJQtGqvI-XcZQXRDQtsxLXVYWg-4tNzgulAzaFbBkWRGSXAAtHU67nF65P8w9Ux08LCuWfVB0APLNFAdAYglygGveCB6AAvJbegzkL6hLgs3FiRDg2Dltg5AA) and it worked.

Hi, @aaron-nimocks.

I've already tried to show only the value without key successfully with 39 characters.

What I want is to follow the format `key:value`.  
It does not work on Kibana of Elasticsearch Service with a free 14-day trial.

[https://40f44e0d466348b982e07925cd53e81a.asia-northeast1.gcp.cloud.es.io:9243/goto/6573e73ab3efe1628f2a15890c0085d0](https://40f44e0d466348b982e07925cd53e81a.asia-northeast1.gcp.cloud.es.io:9243/goto/6573e73ab3efe1628f2a15890c0085d0)  
(will be expired in 10 days)

Hi @aaron-nimocks, thank you for showing us your case. Unfortunately right now, we cannot override width to show full-text. But I agree it looks like an issue for some cases. I reported a new issue for that [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/80325](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/80325) Let's discuss it here.
