Investing Dashboard truncates security names, making them ambiguous
Jim_Harman
SuperUser ✭✭✭✭✭
The Portfolio by Security and Value over Time panels of the new Investing Dashboard truncate the security names to 12 characters.
This means that if you hold securities like Vanguard Total Stock Market, Vanguard Total Bond Market, and Vanguard Total International Stock Market, the are all listed as "Vanguard Tot" so you can't tell which is which.
The box that appears when you hover over the security name should be expanded so that the full security name is shown.

Hello All,
Thank you for taking the time to share your observations and feedback on the newly added investment dashboard in Quicken.
I am also seeing this behavior and have opened a ticket with Development asking them to review this behavior and provided the suggested solution of having the full security name listed in the pop-up window that appears when hovering over a security name.
Once a solution has been created, it will be included in a future product release.
I hope this information is helpful, but please let us know if there are further questions/concerns that we may assist with.
Thank you again,
Sarah

Makes keying in new transactions much faster too.
This does feel like going back to the days of 8-character file names, though.
