[Legend] Improved readability on long legend values #1245

@ghudgins

Description

@ghudgins

Problem with long values
When my data is long and varies mostly at the end of the value
I need to be able to see the ends of long values
So I can see the differences in my legend values from the front and the back of the values

Describe the solution you'd like
Many options:

  • Option that lets you choose to middle ... instead of at the end (as it is today)?
  • Selected approach: Option multi-line legends

There are other solutions we shouldn't look into in the scope of this issue: #963 Focus on a responsive solution (we should still do the resize issue too as that satisfies interactivity cases...just not as a solution to this issue)

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are none, makes lines with multiple series hard to read
