Title:
iubuntu dash truncate the name of all application searched - no way to
see the complete name
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I installed avidemux, which installed two packages with the same initial part
of their names: avidemux2.7_jobs_qt5 and avidemux2.7_qt5.
By clicking SUPER, the Dash will appear. If I search for "avidemux" the two
elements appear but because of the name truncated, I can't differentiate them,
either are showed with the name "avidemux 2.7 (".
Right-clicking on one of these there is the "details" option but it bring me
to the "ubuntu software" application that does not recognize the application
saying "application not found".
I think that the choose to truncate the application name in the Dash is
simply a design bug.
This is very annoying: there is enough space to see the compllete name,
instead of truncate it to the preview image size...
