Wbs of task name is to lengthy ex- 1.1.2.1.12.3.34.5

I have projects with more than 3000 tasks which are very interlinked
they have many childs
the wbs of it lokks like 1.1.1.2.3.3.2.32.12.1…

can we have a simpler yet better representation

Hello,
This is expected behavior because this is how the WBS code should work:

If you need a different representation, you need to use something different. But it depends on what you actually want to see.

Yeah , I know its expected but it is becoming a little difficult for users to read

Can we generalise it like in primavera
can we have an option to customise it so for bigger lengths we can make it more readable

Hello,
Thank you for the clarification.
It seems that you want to show the row number. Right now, there is no built-in way to do that. But it can be implemented with the Gantt API.
Here is an exampe of the implementation:

Yeah this works but can we customisable wbs code

if i have a sub project adding a prefix or suffix to it for readabilty

if there are a lot of tasks with 1.3.2.1.1.1.() this wbs
we should have a option to set that thing to any prefix
essentially making it some [ A12.(WBS )]
A12 being and example prefix

Hello,
There is no way to customize the WBS codes. You need to implement a custom solution by using the Gantt API and Javascript.

Also, on the screenshot, you have the task ID column, not the WBS code.
Here is an example with long WBS codes that you can export to Primavera:

When I open the file in Primavera, I see that it is possible to change the task IDs, but the WBS code remains the same:
