Is there a good way to display less than the full name/path of a nested op in Dagit? For example, the displayed names for
outer_graph.inner_graph.op_1
and
outer_graph.inner_graph.op_2
are truncated based on length to keep the display less messy in Dagit to
outer_graph.inne…
and
outer_graph.inne…
, which becomes very visually unclear with lots of nesting, aliases, or DynamicOutputs.

@Lee Littlejohn - I don't think we currently offer that. @josh - ideas on what we can do here?

Not a big deal or a blocker or anything, just curious. Would be helpful when demoing to the bosses just how much one person can accomplish using Dagster.

What if we truncated the name but always still displayed the last two characters? So instead of
outer_graph.inne…
and
outer_graph.inne…
you'd see
<http://outer_graph.in|outer_graph.in>…_1
and
<http://outer_graph.in|outer_graph.in>…_2
. This is how MacOS handles long filenames. You should still be able to hover over the name to see a tooltip with the full name.

That would be great, just something to differentiate them at a glance.
