Hello,

First of all make sure that you have well pivoted your excel sheet and that it is in the right direction. Hence, make sure that you have not any limitations on the filters. Else, it's normal that you will have only 255 characters, try to put it above average or customize it by inserting above 2000 characters

You can't. looks like it's hard-coded.
