Expected Behavior

I expect for long model names (and possibly model IDs) to be truncated to prevent visual overflows or an unpleasing eye sore from occurring.

Actual Behavior

Long model names (and possibly model IDs) aren't being truncated in a few remaining areas throughout the UI. I didn't know how to solve these remaining long names myself, so I am bringing this issue to the table with this issue post in hopes they'll eventually get solved accordingly.

Steps to Reproduce

Witness that the model name and ID is not being truncated in a few areas of the UI due to its length, but is truncated in other areas of the UI.
