Show "..." when the text is larger than the size (height and width) delimited - edjalmo - 2019-09-10
As explained in the title ... Is this possible?
I'm not a big fan of auto scrolling, I wish to show this to indicate that exist more text and user can see the rest in video info page (where plot can be clicable).
Thanks!

Hi, @Hitcher! Thanks and sorry for the delay for answer.
I'm really very noob in skinning, so I couldn't replicate your code here. When I tried the plot went dark.
Can you explain more your code? How do you know when show this image or not?
I want use this in a view I made for Amber. The view look this way:
But I want show "..." as text, not image, if possible.
This is the code of this view: https://pastebin.com/RPa1Gn8V
The plot is around line 168.
