Description Sebastien Bacher 2006-05-08 10:44:29 UTC 
That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/epiphany-browser/+bug/43161

"Some bookmarks on the bookmarks toolbar have their text cut-off for no clear reason.

For example, a bookmark with the name 'Rosanne' is displayed as 'Rosan...', while a bookmark with the (much longer) name 'Mi Viaje a Guatemala' is displayed in its entirety.

I have found no relation between the bookmark texts and this issue, other than that it always happens when I start a bookmark with 'Ro', but some other texts work too. For example, 'Tweakers.net' gets cut-off to 'Tweakers...'.

I will attach a small screenshot below.

http://librarian.launchpad.net/2501606/epiphany-toolbar.png
Both bookmarks have the same url. The full text of the second one is 'Rosanne'.

Removing the bookmark and creating it again does not help. Entering 'Rosanne' as text for another existing bookmark triggers the issue again."

I've observed this "feature" as well. Peter, what do you think of it?

Screenshot showing possible Pango bug

I can provide a similar screenshot with the topics on toolbar. I think it's a Pango issue with ellipsizing.

The full text of the topic in my screenshot is "Fun".
Comment 4 Christian Persch 2006-05-14 19:42:29 UTC 
Might be a problem specific to toolitems, since I haven't seen bogus ellipsisations elsewhere...

This also occurs in the bookmarks menu for me.

I can't reproduce this bug myself, but other users confirm.

In fact, I see it in the bookmarks menu also.
Comment 9 Josselin Mouette 2007-10-31 13:54:42 UTC 
The original submitter of the Debian bug found it is fixed in epiphany 2.20.
Comment 10 Tshepang Lekhonkhobe 2007-10-31 13:58:01 UTC 
I'm actually running Epiphany 2.18 (but with the rest of GNOME at 2.20). Sorry for not noting that.
Comment 11 Reinout van Schouwen 2007-10-31 22:35:31 UTC 
Marking FIXED based on comment #9. Please feel free to reopen the bug if the problem occurs again.
