Nicolas Malin updated OFBIZ-13167:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
On model form, when you use a field description with a text size like :
{code:java}
<form...>
    <field name="myfield" ...><display size="15"/></field>
</form>{code}
and your field myField contains a string with a special character like "my char 
é, so bad truncate", the widget rendering displays "my char &ea...ate" because 
when truncate is executed, the string is encoded and some chars are encoded : 
"my char &eacut;, so bad truncate".

The size between the encoded string and the displayed string are different. So 
to fix this, we implemented a new method to truncate the content. This method 
identify each special char as one char, and truncate.

"my char é, so bad truncate" encoded to "my char &eacut;, so bad truncate" 
become "my char &eacut;, ...ate" and not "my char &eac...ate"
