Question tool UI in the OpenCode Desktop hides longer descriptions #14924
Description
Description
For a question that has longer description, the description gets truncated and there is no way to see the full content. Clicking or hovering over an option does not reveal its full description.
See the following screenshot:
The TUI doesn't truncate the descriptions, so it is readable there:

This is a duplicate of #10283.

It touches the same problem, but the solution proposed there is wrong in my opinion. Limiting the model's output can bring more harm than good. I think this should be fixed in the GUI by allowing to see the full output of the question (as the TUI version does).

Agree. I've upvoted your comment on the other issue.

I have a PR that should fix this: #34116
Technically the long answers are already visible now in the web UI, but the scrolling functionality was an issue. The above fixes that and more.

@eXamadeus - I love the video presentation. I hope your PR gets merged, I have added "thumb" to it, so hopefully it will be less likely to close automatically :)
