Don't have the problem in Green Screen... <LOL>
To display big variable, Green Screen can DO MORE than RDI 9.5.0.2.
<Just saying> Score one for Green-Screen Debugger. <Evil Smirk>
I open a PMR on this long time ago, and IBM said to use Monitor Memory to get all. But, so darn ugly, and cannot do Cut & paste nor change the data to test for debug....
I guess that is score TWO for Green Screen Debugger over the limitation of RDI 9.5.0.2.

I try doing a monitor "MyVariable:C 5000" and only returns a maximum

Same.
9.5.0.2, Win 7 32-bit
dcl-s bigfield char(65000) inz(*all'1234567890'); monitor bigfield:c 5000 The Monitors View does not show 5k characters. Too lazy to count them.
Double click it, to be able to change the value. This window says
Offset: 0 Length: 4095 and in fact, the last characters shown are '12345' so I believe that it really is truncated to 4095 bytes.
I have similar behaviour with bigfield:c 10000; the change window stops at 4095 bytes.
monitor %substr(bigfield 5001 10) shows 1234567890 as expected.
Double click to change shows what seems to be the right characters, but actually changing them results in Server: CPF7E12 Identifier does not exist.
Sounds like a bug (for the truncation) and maybe an RFE (to be able to change a substring).
