Doesnt work on Angular8

[gotwig]

I tried to use the following code in the latest angular release, but nothing is happening.

The text is not shortened, theres no overflow hidden or anything like that, and when I use overflow hidden inside the style attribute there are no ellipsis characters (..)

<p style="width: 100px; height: 100px;" ellipsis [ellipsis-content]="variableName"> </p>

using div instead of p doesnt change anything.

Btw for the demo you should suggest to use P instead of DIV - DIV is a container format, P is for paragraphs.

Even better: Make a working stackblitz for the demo to prove that its working!

Thanks for your affords!

Cheers, Eddy

Im not sure why, but in my case the "..." and the text shorting only happens after I manualy change the height for example in css in the browser. When the page inititaly loads theres no ellipsis... any idea?

btw: I dont think its good practise to close tickets directly without getting feedback from the one reporting the issue.

Thank you!
