The patch won't work anymore. Rofi code base has been in flux a lot. I can see a use for this, will add it to the todo.
That is awesome to hear. Thanks for the followup.
Implemented, Should be bound to Alt+period

Just did some lite testing on commit 52c5592 and it seems to be working great :)

Further Details
Being able to dynamically change the windows view in order to view truncated lines would be a nice feature. Basically, functioning left/right keys. I know this is a great example of something being easier said than done, and their being a lot to consider. Although I stumbled on #399 which has the same end goal and mentions this patch, which I unsuccessfully tried to apply. I am assuming it won't build since rofi's code has evolved so much since then.
My question: if I went through line by line and manually added the contents of that patch where its needed, could i get the keybinding and behavior to "toggle ellipsis"? Or has rofi's code base changed so much that the patch is now obsolete?
I am using rofi as a narrow sidebar that displays screen right, and with certain scripts and plugins I use having the ability to toggle between a lines beginning and end could be helpful, e.g how I prefer to display _rofitop:
Any thoughts on accomplishing this would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
