Thread: pgAdmin not showing text longer than about 4k
Using the editor to view text columns, it is behaving strangely.
It does not show the text if text is longer than about 4k.
However, if one uses the cursor buttons, the cursor does move about within the column’s data field as if there are characters being displayed.
Also, if one copies the contents of the field, and pastes it to another app, the text does actually appear (in the destination app).
Perhaps PgAdmin has Zaphod Beeblebrox’s danger sensitive glasses on, and it thinks data this big must be dangerous and therefore hides it from view?
Please advise.
Regards,
Peter

Additional information: it appears that this issue shows up when all of the data in the row is devoid of carriage return / line feeds. Ie: text is all on one line.
