Dear Vicky,
The limit comes from the data model. ResonanceGroup.details has a built-in
limit of 254 characters. Generally we try to put limits in wherever we
can. Unlimited text strings take more space in databases, and it makes
sense for user interfaces to assume relatively short text strings if this
is what people mostly have.
So, the question is if you can convince us to change the basic data model.
That may depend whether we think your way of using this is likely to be
general, or whether we would recommmend people to do this ni other ways.
Could you describe in more detail what kind of things you have been
entereing in that field?
Yours,
Rasmus
