Long pack names and world descriptions don't stop with "..." in some menus
Created Issue:
Long resource pack names and world descriptions don't stop with "..." in some menus
Sorry if the wording is confusing, but basically when you're in the resource pack menu or the world selection menu, if a name of a resource pack or the bottom line of a world description is too long, rather than cutting it short and ending with "..." the text continues to go to the right of the screen, even beyond the scroll bar (the one you drag up/down to go through a list of resource packs or worlds). In simpler words, the text doesn't stop.

The bug
Although long pack names now use the ... symbol, it does not cut the pack name which renders above it. This is not the case in previous versions.
The bug relates to MC-180350.
How to reproduce
- Download the pack below for easier reproduction.
- Drag and drop the pack to the "Data Packs" or "Resource Packs" menu.

Resolved as a duplicate of MC-180350. If you take a close look at the screenshots in that ticket, the ellipsis is there as well.

Confirmed in 1.16 Pre-release 8.
The ... symbol is now used by data packs and resource packs in later snapshots although it does not work properly.
The bug should be assigned to the UI category.
Confirmed for 1.16 RC-1. Please keep it all in one text.
The description should be changed to the following below or similar to make it look cleaner:
I am unable to reproduce this issue in the resource pack folder, however am I able to reproduce this in the single player world list (in 20w51a).
Can confirm in 21w03a for single player world list.
Can confirm this was fixed for resource packs and data packs in 20w30a. The world selection screen issue is MC-383.
