I have the feeling that we had a discussion about this a long time ago. And that no simple solution was found. @Digitalone1 may remember what it was. I think that libadwaita widget doesn't allow that to be configured for its dropdown menu.

This particular kind of problem won't happen in the Qt branch because a traditional combobox is used. One possible solution for the gtk branch would be not using the libadwaita widget in this case. That is assuming gtk's standard combobox does not suffer from the same issue. The question is if it is worth the effort considering the Qt port will eventually replace the gtk branch.

The same is probably also valid for the Qt branch. Even with a traditional combobox if the text is too long and ellipsize is enabled the text will be truncated. The only way around this would be to disable ellipsizing entirely. What may or may not be desirable. It depends on the location.

Here you are. #2508

I was thinking, can't we make Geometric mean into just "one" option, that when selected new element would appear in GUI, where we would select which values are used for Geometric mean?

It is not impossible to do. It is not how things are done under the hood but exposing it this way for the user should not be a problem. But I am not sure if I would put effort on this in the gtk branch. Specially when it is not clear if the Qt branch also requires this workaround.

Testing version 8 and it seems the issue is resolved @wwmm @Digitalone1
