Is there any way to configure GH to display JIRA project keys > 4 characters (e.g. ABCDE-24)?

It looks like any JIRA project keys that exceed 4 characters are truncated -- and not to the 4 characters that fit but to only 2 characters with the rest of the space taken up by ellipsis (e.g. AB...-24).

Is there any way we can we configure GH to display JIRA project keys of 5 characters without truncation?

Sorry it is not possible.
If you hover the truncated key it will show you the complete key.
This was done due to space issues.

The numeric part of the key is what should be the most important.
You can do your search base on that part.

Cheers,

Thanks for the quick response!

Ah, that's too bad. Where can I file a feature request?

Understand there may be layout limitations, but at the very least you should try to show 3 or 4 chars rather than truncating any project key exceeding 4 char down to only 2 chars. That's 2 characters of very helpful identification info that disappear replaced by "..." which is just noise -- it doesn't provide any useful information.
