Hi,

Here is a screenshot of a situation where the dock holds merely one icon and where the caption string is larger than the dock.
The result is a truncated caption.

The same problem is true when the dock is vertical (which is quite important since the Unity influence might make it a more common position for the dock)

Cheers.

I agree with you. I speak about this bug here (in french). Matttbe says this label need to be create in a new window in this case. So that need a bigger work than we can imagine.

I'm ready to believe that. Yet if you think about it, dialogues are behaving as we'd wish the labels to.
So perhaps the structure of dialogues could be modified to make labels?

Well, totally correct ! But I'm not a dev, so… Anyway, it's a good idea for Fab

Yes, good idea but it's not an easy task

I think there is already a task for this problem, so I don't add one on this topic (correct me if I'm wrong)

It seems not but you can link two subjects to only one bug or the opposite
