Bug Description

If a key has a long string as its value, part of the string goes outside the borders of the window. Text can be edited but part of it cannot be seen.

An example of such key in my case is org.gnome.DejaDup.exclude-list.

Note that there is an horizontal scrollbar and that you can use it to see the content

The UI has been improved in the next version (3.20), which might fix this problem. That version is not yet available in the current Ubuntu so I cannot test.
