Display full numeric precision in SQL Lab (UI & clipboard copy)

What is the problem or goal the end user is trying to solve or accomplish?

The user wants to view and copy high-precision decimal values (e.g. NUMERIC(38,17)) from SQL Lab without truncation. Currently, values displayed in the SQL Lab results table get visually truncated, which can cause issues for users working with financial, scientific, or other precision-sensitive data.

How are they solving it currently?

To preserve the value, users explicitly cast numbers to VARCHAR in the SQL query.

They use Export to CSV, which retains full numeric precision.

However, the displayed value in SQL Lab and what gets copied via the “copy to clipboard” action is still truncated, even after casting.

What is the recommended solution by the Customer?

Display full numeric precision in SQL Lab result cells (possibly with a toggle for formatting/precision).

Ensure the "copy to clipboard" feature captures the full raw value as returned from the database — not the visually truncated one.

Maintain current behavior in CSV exports (which already preserve full precision).
