Bug Description

It is not possible to access the edit button when the content of a variable is too long like in this case:

With a short variable content it is possible to change it's current value.

Proposed solution:
Simplest solution is to truncate middle characters to a maximum of an arbitrary number, say 100.
so it would change:

"1234567890asdfghjklqwertyuiopzxcvbnm1234567890asdfghjklqwertyuiopzxcvbnm"
to something like
"1234567890asdf ... wertyuiopzxcvbnm"

Deployment Type

Hoppscotch Cloud

Version
