feat: enhance split check interface usability

- Add dynamic font responsiveness to split check buttons
- Implement text wrapping instead of truncation for long item names
- Increase button widths (order: 250px→280px, seat: 120px→150px)
- Double button heights (order: 40px→80px, seat: 84px→168px)
- Remove modifier display for cleaner interface
- Update changelog with detailed change documentation

This improves the split check zone readability and user experience by
allowing longer item names to be displayed clearly with proper text
wrapping, responsive fonts, and better button sizing.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
 ### Fixed
+- **Split Check Interface: Enhanced Button Display and Usability (2026-01-20)**
+  - Improved the split check zone interface for better readability and user experience
+  - **Changes Made**:
+    - Added dynamic font responsiveness - buttons now properly inherit font sizes from zone settings
+    - Implemented text wrapping instead of truncation - long item names now wrap to multiple lines within buttons
+    - Increased button widths - order item buttons from 250px to 280px, seat buttons from 120px to 150px
+    - Doubled button heights - order buttons from 40px to 80px, seat buttons from 84px to 168px
+    - Removed modifier display from split check buttons for cleaner interface
+  - **Root Cause**: Split check buttons had hardcoded fonts, truncated text, cramped dimensions, and cluttered display with modifiers
+  - **Solution**: 
+    - Modified ItemObj constructors to accept font_id parameters and use dynamic fonts
+    - Added RenderWrappedText helper method for word-based text wrapping
+    - Increased button dimensions for better text accommodation
+    - Removed modifier rendering loop and dynamic height calculation
+  - **Files modified**: 
+    - `zone/split_check_zone.cc` (main implementation)
+    - `zone/split_check_zone.hh` (method declaration)
+  - **Impact**: Split check interface now displays longer item names clearly with proper text wrapping, responsive fonts, and improved button sizing for better usability
+
 - **Build Warnings: Compiler Warning Fixes (2026-01-20)**
   - Fixed various C++ compiler warnings to achieve clean builds
   - **Issues Fixed**:
