Description:
----[For better reports, please attach the log file after submitting. You can find it in C:\Users\JBM\AppData\Roaming\MySQL\Workbench\log\wb.log]

When creating a new schema and changing the default charset/collation you are unable to read the full name of the collation. Selecting utf8mb4 gives you (2) collations for the utf8mb4_unicode  (520_ci and _ci) but you are unable to read the as the box is not resizable nor is there a handle bar to drag across and see the rest of the text.

How to repeat:
Create a new query

Suggested fix:
make the input drop down field re-sizable or increase size to max according to list of values in the field.

Yes, this is a duplicate of that bug. I am going to assume then that there is no planned resolution to this issue.
