[5.47] Do not show the Notes' description in the navigator

Completed

Introduced in VertiGIS Studio Workflow 5.47

I typically use the Notes activity to document workflows, so its description can be larger than in other activities. This takes up a lot of space in the navigator:

 

I don't think the entire description would have to be displayed, maybe just the first line. Maybe a scrollbar could be implemented, or a way to collapse/expand the description (collapsed by default for Notes). 

If a match is found when searching in the navigator, only that match could be displayed, including some surrounding text.

  Thanks for implementing this. 
  I found one small issue: When searching in the navigator, the notes activity can only be found if there is a match in the displayed part of the text. I would expect the entire description to be searched.

  Berend Veldkamp My thought on this scenario initially was that it would be potentially confusing to show something in the results without the matching text being visible. Then again, I suppose it would be more helpful to see something that is a match (but not obivously so) rather than hiding it. I've added a bug to the backlog. (Bug #355294)
