Resize Player Avatar Names (lower left corner)

SOLVED: See reply I've just come back to using roll20 after a short break so maybe I missed an update or something... The issue I'm having is that the player 'avatars' (where you set your name and it shows their roll20 avatar or video if using it and the colour assigned to them) are now tiny when set to names only. I used to use these for my players to use the colours assigned so I could tell who was drawing, or measuring (and to match their individual token frames), but I also used it to show information for me as the DM in the following format: 'Player Name' | 'Character Name' | AC | Passive Perception. Before it used to text wrap and make the name plates bigger to fit all the text, I found it really useful to have all this stuff on screen rather than having to have a separate note. Now you seem to get a max of about 10 characters and an ellipsis if the name is any longer, which is kind of useless to me. I have one player who's entire screen name doesn't even show up. Is there any way to adjust this and have it behave in the 'old' way? I've been unable to find anything in settings or skimming the forums. Even when I set it to 'Large' it still only shows like 10 characters and ... when there is plenty of space to display the full screen name.  Not sure who needed this change, but I don't get it. Cheers, Xero

So after a last hail mary attempt to fix this, it seems to only resize the name plate and show all the text if audio and video functions are completely disabled in the tabletop. Great feature.... Guess if I want full name plates I can't use integrated video or audio. Not sure if Bug or "Feature"

Hi Xero, Integrated Voice and Video is a new feature that is missing some elements. The Devs are aware of this and there is hope they will add some of the functionality back that is present in the older WebRTC A/V option.
