You have been subscribed to a public bug: If you increase font scaling – either with Gnome Tweaks > Fonts > Scaling Factor or gsettings org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling- factor – text in the GNOME Shell search box is cut off.
Text scaling can help with hidpi screens and is an accessibility feature. I noticed this a while ago but I finally got around to testing it systematically in December with the then-current noble daily build and reported it upstream (https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/issues/4023). I today confirmed it's still present in an updated Noble install. The issue does not occur with the default GNOME/Adwaita Shell theme installed with gnome-session or other OSes like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed so it seems like a Yaru theme issue. My upstream bug report (https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/issues/4023) has examples with screenshots.
