Depending on the platform and theme being used, some elements will have a set maximum width so they will be always appear cropped. If you wish to use the value
none
and the displayed text is larger than this maximum width, you may be able to use the max-width CSS property (or the maxwidth attribute) to override this size. For example, for a menuitem in a menu you can add the following CSS rule when you want to use the value none
:
menupopup > menuitem, menupopup > menu { max-width: none; }
