When Debug python code, Variables cannot be displayed completely.

I seem to have the same issue after upgrading pycharm today - all string variables are truncated. This is very frustrating, I have to opt to old-fashioned ‘print’, it shouldn't be like this!

This is related to the following regression: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-75568/Large-strings-truncated-when-displayed-in-debug-output-or-evaluate-windows-again

It will be fixed in the next major update.  Check the workaround in the comments for now.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
