Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-241:
------------------------------------

Since PatternLayout started from extras I wondered why it isn't already there. 
Then I noticed that FormattingInfo in the link above says right truncation was 
added in 1.2.17, which is very recent.
                
> Support the ability to trim logger name from the right.

> In log4j2, there doesn't seem to be a way to trim the logger name from the 
> right.  I have a situation where our logger names can be extremely large, 
> even when only using the class name.  We'd like to trim it down to a certain 
> number of characters (e.g. 10).  When reading trace files, the 10 beginning 
> characters would be more unique than the last 10 characters.  This would be 
> extremely useful for us to be able to do in the configuration file in the 
> pattern layout.
