Tourist attraction list layout problem

The attraction list truncates the attraction names while there is still a lot of empty space to the right, even in the default dialog size.

The problem is still present in 111.1

Please make better use of screen real estate. I don't quite understand why the texts are cropped while there is so much free space to the right. If the screenshot is unclear the full texts are "Dark Crystal Splinter Plant" and "Light Crystal Splinter Plant", but only the first two words are shown.

The "problem" has been around since at least 88.04.1.
Why does the code explicitly take only the first two words? I dunno. Might try asking someone who was coding back then.  ;)

I think the old attraction did not have double line breaks as we enforce it now to seperate name and description.

Also, the list does not include Monuments... surely it should?

Whee, seems it's solved in the next version :)
