I first noticed this on 'List of Ethnic Slurs', messing around. The text that is at the front of the exhibit has some information and then says 'the following list...' The list is not there.

Thanks,
Eric Ward

(dont ask why i was on that exhibit)

Text plaques have a limit to the amount of text displayed, and cut off at the next sentence/paragraph end once that limit is reached. There isn't really a way for me to stop that from cutting off at a point where the player wants to keep reading (that would require the museum software to actually understand the text to some extent) but there might be some hacks. I'll keep this issue open for now.

One option could be something like a "read more" button that could allow a user to expand the text on a plaque from the point where it's cut off, or something along those lines

Read more sounds like an interesting option. You could also make a list of words that you’d want to check for, eg ‘the following’ and search the article that’s being displayed for those words. Then, just have another plaque generate with the current one, close by.
