I also specified middle ellipsis for radio menu menubuttons. <https://goo.gl/wqXZNI> (Canonical-only link, sorry)
In future I would expect it to be specified for dropdown menu menubuttons, for menu items in general, for headers, and for list items. (From a quick survey, none of those specify overflow behavior currently.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-ui-toolkit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580974 Title: Button label should ellipsize in the middle Status in Ubuntu UX: New Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: As per the Buttons spec "In the unlikely event that a button’s label is too long for the width available, it should be ellipsized in the middle" Currently the Label in ButtonForeground ellipsizes in the end. Also quoting Matthew on the reasoning: (1 Two buttons with long but similar labels are more likely to differ at their ends than their middles (e.g. “Change This Event Only” vs. “Change This And Future Events”). (2 End ellipsis is already used to mean “you’ll need to do something else after tapping this”. <http://goo.gl/pNkFp1> (Canonical-only link, sorry): “In the unlikely event that a button’s label is too long for its maximum possible width, it should be ellipsized in the middle (because the start and end are more likely to be distinct between buttons), and a warning should be logged for the developer’s attention.” To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1580974/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
