Is there a way to show non truncated data with tshark without recompiling?

Has there been a feature added yet to T-Shark to allow you to see the full non-truncated payload of a message? In my case I am working with webscocket data that is compressed using permessage-deflate. I can decompress it, but it truncates the payload.

I'm aware that I can recompile tshark and modify the ITEM_LABEL_LENGTH in epan/proto.h, but I wanted to see if there was any other way this could be accomplished without recompiling tshark.

This is an example of the Tshark command I am running: tshark -r ~/Downloads/small.pcap -Y websocket.payload -Tfields -e frame.number -e frame.time -e text

Thanks
