Publisher beta 2.2.0.1903, Windows: fields panel, german localization, longer property names are cut off

This also applies to customer 2.1.1.

1) When opening the fields panel for the first time, the longer property names (nested level 1) are cut off on the left side because the left column is to narrow.

2) I can drag the split point to the right to reveal the hidden words.

3) After closing and restarting Publisher the old/initial panel split is used again and the property names are cut off again. This is annoying because you have to fix the panel layout each time before you can work with it.

Automatic panel layout depending on the word lengths of the localized property names might be difficult. But the panel should at least persist and restore the last split position manually set by the user. E.g. the last position, width/height of the fields panel are already persisted.

I believe this is a known issue since v1 and isn't new in the 2.2 beta. On macOS long field labels are truncated on the right with an ellipsis but on Windows they're right aligned and cropped on the left by the panel border.

Column splits aren't saved in any panel. You're right, that would let you work around the issue but it would be nice if the Windows UI truncated field labels like macOS.
