labels truncated at 256 chars

[Fernando Simon]

Hi Francesco, and Umberto,
    Yes, this is the correct way to increase the text size. I believe 
that exists a bugreport about it.
     Thanks Umberto for the quickly reply. Here the clock time for me 
was 04:00 when the issue started and finished.
     Best regards.
