Description:
"form editor" cuts a long text (> ca. 250 chars) short and the scroll bars are inactive.

How to repeat:
Select a text field with more than 250 chars. After ca. 250 the remaining text is abbreviated to "...".

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.2.2 release, and here's the changelog entry:

The form editor would only display up to 250 characters.

Thank you for the bug report.
