I agree with you @kittaakos, but I used the ellipsis because if we have a very long library name that can't fit the button we still can't see what's in the button. Probably in this case the design needs to be changed.

Looks like we need some work on the design side. Clearly, having ... is not something I want to see as a user.

If ... is accepted as the final design, I am happy to approve the code. Otherwise, we need a better solution.

@kittaakos I agree with you that is needed some work on the design side. This means a general check to the cta copy, that shouldn't contain dynamic entities @davegarthsimpson

In this specific case I would fix the issue replacing the second cta as INSTALL WITHOUT DEPENDENCIES

In addition to that I believe we could remove the CANCEL cta, it is redundant in this case, since we already have the closing icon of the dialog on the top right and the action required of the library installation is not "disruptive".

Since won't be immediate to spot and solve all these occurrences of the text overflow in cta, I believe that we need a rule for those cases, to not break the interface while keeping it usable: I would procede with @francescospissu solution, with the caveat that we need a tooltip with the complete text when it get truncated, the easiest tooltip to implement that I can imagine is the html one given by the title attribute.

Use native dialogs, so they won't scale.

@kittaakos I could agree with you but this requires a broader discussion, for what concerns this PR I suggest as follow:

• Adoption of truncation and ellipsis when the text overflow on CTAs, when this happens is needed the title attribute with the complete text

In addition, for this specific dialog:

• Removal of the cancel button
• Substitute the text of the second CTA with: INSTALL WITHOUT DEPENDENCIES

@kittaakos @91volt
the buttons can, IMO, only have

YES / NO / CANCEL

since the question is already asked above them.
"would you like to install all the missing dependencies?"

maybe such text could be enhanced and a note added in an asterisk style or with a circled "?" so the user can hover it and read:
"should you choose not to install dependencies, Sketches using this library might not correctly build and upload"

I've implemented the suggestion from @91volt. Now, when the window size is small, it looks like this:

Now it's way better, but if I set the interface scale to the max value (280%) I can't read the whole buttons using at full-screen:

The above screenshot was made with the IDE on ~500px. You can also see that the title of the dialog is wrapping to a new line (which I think is inevitable if the name of the library is very long)

As we discussed offline, using the title attribute to show the whole button ONLY when the button label is partially shown is not so easy (and feels kind of hacky).

@91volt do you think this is enough or can we do something more? If we could find even shorter button labels it would be great, but it's not so easy.

I would at least change the dialog title removing the name of the library (something like "Install library dependencies")

I believe this is unrelated to the current issue, since it is not affecting the usability of buttons.

The solution looks good to me, and the case of a 250% scaled up interface keeping the window size smaller than 500px are cases that are not worth to cover IMHO. Is something that is not supported neither by VScode or Replit.

The only thing I can imagine of, is to adopt the title attribute for all buttons, showing its label, this is actually a pattern we can see in a lot of IDE (e.g. VScode buttons).

Wdyt? @per1234 @ubidefeo @AlbyIanna

@91volt I totally agree with everything.
If this is the case, I would suggest the following changes for this PR:

• add a title attribute to each button
• change the title of the dialog to "Install library dependencies"
