After some testing, i found that it affects all skins with sampler decks.
If you just start up Mixxx and load a track with long metadata to the sampler deck, its fine. But if you switch a skin, the Artist/Title display expands. The <Text> key has a fixed size, but expands on skin change inside the Sampler's <WidgetGroup>, overwriting the other elements.

Text displayed using the <TrackProperty> key (like on the decks), are unaffected. So i guess  <Text> needs some tweaking in the skin parser. As a workaround, i try to use an extra fixed size tag inside the <Text> key's <Size> attribute.

Correction to mixxxdj/mixxx#4911
It does affect text displayed using the <TrackProperty> key. Need to add the workaround there too.
