Hi @lochannimje

Please follow the guidelines for opening issues. "[Component Name]: [Bug Description]" doesn't give information of the affected component and neither of what the issue is about.

Also, please add a reproducible example, preferably by using this StackBlitz template.

Hi @Lukas742 please click the link: https://sap.github.io/ui5-webcomponents-react/?path=/story/user-feedback-messageview--message-view-in-dialog and then click on Open Dialog

you can see the highlighted message, it is not showing fully, can see dots there. Expected behaviour: It can show the message fully.

This is not related to the MessageView but the Dialog as it has a width of 400px defined in our example. The linked PR will adjust this. So, in your application you can adjust the behavior of the Dialog to your use-case.

Hi @Lukas742, The above issue comes in Safari browser, for other browser it is working as expected. Please help me over here!!

Hi @lochannimje

maybe Safari makes the text a bit bolder, or calculates the dimension of the font somehow differently, but the root cause of this is still the same (at least in our Storybook). We're setting a width (only in our documentation, not in the component itself) of 400px and since the text is longer than that, it gets truncated.
In your application, it's up to you to decide what dimensions you want to use for the Dialog.

If there's a different issue with the component, please add a reproducible example.

Hi Lukas742, I see that the Title control is used to display the text in the MessageView in https://github.com/SAP/ui5-webcomponents-react/pull/5993/files. Can't we set the 'wrappingType' property to 'Normal' in the Title control? This could solve the issue for us.

Hi @pppwr7

unfortunately not, since this behavior is by design. You can see the same behavior in the SAPUI5 implementation (just change one of the titles to a very long one). Titles should be short and meaningful, for further information you can use the detail view.

In case you want to open a feature request for the wrapping behavior, please first open a ticket in central design and include the ID in the feature request.
