Research direction

Locate the handling of shortenTextAfterLength in the TypeScript React component and reproduce the case where the setting equals the string length. Check the existing tests for text shortening, then add coverage showing that an ellipsis is not added when the lengths are equal. Done means the boundary case displays the complete value without an ellipsis.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

If you set the shortenTextAfterLength to the length of the word, then an ellipsis is added after the word, although this is not necessary.
