Ionic Framework Version

v7.x

Current Behavior

Please check my demo here:
https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-rwpxp7?file=src%2Fapp%2Fexample.component.html

The first part is the "old style", it uses separated ion-label for the select. The second part uses the new style, with an inner slot div. The behaviour of the two cases are very different.

Expected Behavior

The label appears as with the old labeling style.

Steps to Reproduce

Please check my demo code

Thanks for the issue. I am going to close this as this is not a bug in Ionic Framework. Floating and stacked labels should not have multiple lines in order to conform to the Material Design specification. That is why we have the label text truncate by default.

If you need to provide more context regarding an input then the helperText property should be used: https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/input#helper--error-text
