I did some extensive digging and found why it is fixed in Adwaita and not Yaru.
Two weeks ago, the below commit was merged to gnome-shell. It checks to see if the string width is longer than the box width, and if it is, it switches to a hardcoded "leightweight" width of 13pt. commit 80a869e7686adf772512069d7818bda0379190d8 Author: Jonas Dreßler <[email protected]> Date: Mon Feb 17 19:59:31 2020 +0100 Subject: dialogs: Use a smaller font-size if the title width exceeds the space Link: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome- shell/-/commit/80a869e7686adf772512069d7818bda0379190d8 This commit is present in the gnome-shell 3.35.91-1ubuntu2 package in focal. Looking at the upstream Yaru sources, this "leightweight" tag is already merged, so I think this makes things Fix Committed. https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/blob/master/gnome-shell/src/gnome-shell- sass/widgets/_dialogs.scss#L32-L47 I built Yaru from source and tested it, and it works. For some reason the title is not Bold, no idea why, but the user experience is much better. Attached is a picture from upstream Yaru. So Fix Committed. Will have to wait for Yaru master to land in Focal. ** Attachment added: "Fixed version with upstream Yaru" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1866259/+attachment/5334734/+files/Screenshot%20from%202020-03-09%2012-33-06.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866259 Title: Text clipped on password overlay dialogues Status in GNOME Shell: Unknown Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On focal with yaru-gtk-theme 20.04.2, the text in the password overlay dialogue boxes is clipped. Possibly the font is too big, or the dialogue box not wide enough?
