At first I considered tagging this as a bug, but I believe this is probably deliberate behavior:

When making inline references (with #) it seems like any database with 2 or more letters in the database icon are partially hidden. In my opinion, this doesn’t look very nice. It looks a bit like a UI error (hence why I almost tagged this as a bug). Would removing the “hiding” behavior (or some other solution) be an option?

I suffer from this and it would actually help a lot to see this fixed because the 2nd or further letter is very helpful, especially if you have a larger Fibery instance with multiple db’s - the colors and letters get used up so stuff can look more similar than it should and it’s confusing - to have a DB for example “S” in an off shade of purple, and then one called “SG” that is navy blue, but the “g” is cut off, they will look very similar…
