Regression

No

Animator Parameter name has no character limit and is not truncated which results in Transition Condition selection dropdown very long and cut off the screen

-

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a new Unity project using the Universal 3D template
  2. Create a new "Cube" GameObject (GameObject > 3d Object > Cube)
  3. Open the Animation window (Window > Animation > Animation)
  4. Create a new animation by pressing the "Create" button in the Animation window
  5. Open the Animator window (Window > Animation > Animator)
  6. Create a new State
  7. Make a transition from the New Animation to the new State
  8. Click on the "Parameters" button
  9. Create any parameter with a very long name
  10. Click on the transition created in step 7
  11. Open the Conditions selection dropdown
  12. Observe the Conditions selection dropdown

Actual results: The Conditions selection dropdown does not truncate long names so the dropdown is over the whole screen and cut off on the right side, parameters don't have a character limit

Expected results: The Conditions selection dropdown either truncates long names or the parameters have a limit of characters

Reproducible with versions: 2021.3.51f1, 2022.3.64f1, 6000.0.52f1, 6000.1.9f1, 6000.2.0b8, 6000.3.0a1

Tested on (OS): macOS Silicon Sequoia 15.5

  1. Resolution Note:

    In most places where these controls overflow, users have the option to resize the view to make the content fit.

    This is a very easy to avoid issue (don't write very large names), we feel it would be potentially detrimental to restrict property names, and the control used doesn't offer any option to ellipsify the string.

    Considering the easily available workarounds, the risk posed by limiting user choices, and the complexity of ellipsifying the text, we have decided not to address this issue.
