What happened

image.png

As seen in the image; the 2nd entry exceeds the UI container and past the battery icon too.

What should happen

A few ways I can see to have this shown instead.

  1. Have it truncate the end part.
  2. Extend the container size.
  3. Have the text move; similar to the media title view.

Steps to reproduce

1. Connecting any device that has a long name.
2. View battery/power module by hovering cursor over module.

Hmm. Since the popout is largely sized for the power mode swapper rather than the devices, I'll probably make the text elide if its name is too long to fit within the view. I don't have a device that has a name long enough for this so I can't test myself, but I'll push a patch that should fix it.

Could you not double print the same device name on the same line to check? I will check some time and report back.

Yeah I did manage to test it myself, but I also accidentally left the test code in when I pushed yesterday. That's fixed now though, so I'll close this issue.
