text-overflow:ellipsis not recognized by HTML2Canvas

[mg4965]

Hi,

I have an element that has the text-overflow:ellipsis style property assigned to it and when I try to get the image of that element via HTML2Canvas it seems like it is just ignored. Do you know if HTML2Canvas supports the text-overflow CSS property? If not, is there a simple way I can add it?

Thanks.

Looked at the code and I believe that does not support it.
The best alternative is you manipulate text of your DOM using javascript and stop using "text-overflow" property (until support is implemented for "text-overflow").

Try this: http://www.bramstein.com/projects/text-overflow/

Has this issue not been resolved? I am still seeing the issue.

Yes I am seeing this issue too. We don't want to use a separate plugin for text-overflow. Is there any way to manipulate text of DOM using javascript (not jQuery).
