Ellipsis
Text inside an HTML element can be truncated easily with an ellipsis by using CSS. To make this even easier, you can use the EllipsisDirective which has been exposed by the @abp/ng.theme.shared package.
Getting Started
In order to use the EllipsisDirective in an HTML template, it should be imported in your component. The selector of directive is abpEllipsis. By adding the abpEllipsis attribute to an HTML element, you can activate the EllipsisDirective for the HTML element.
// ...
import { EllipsisDirective } from '@abp/ng.theme.shared';
@Component({
//...
imports: [EllipsisDirective],
template: `
<p abpEllipsis>
