• Status: RESOLVED

div {
    -webkit-writing-mode: vertical-rl; 
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
    overflow: hidden;
    white-space: nowrap;
    border: solid 1px red;
    height: 200px;
  }

  input {
    float: right;
  }

<div><input type="text">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. 
</div>

In vertical writing mode, we should truncate the text at the edge of the input box and apply ellipsis in vertical writing mode. Currently we fail to do both.

vertical overflow with ellipsis test

This is a slightly better test which would work in all browsers by avoiding prefixes.

rendering in Safari, firefox, chrome

* firefox and chrome show the ellipsis
* safari doesn't cut the box at the same length and doesn't show the ellipsis

WebKit ToT (260447@main) now show "ellipsis" but still does not cut at right length at least for this test case:

Just wanted to show the little progress on this bug.

ok, so original bug is fixed (IFC progression). Karl's test case is slightly different as it relies on a relative height unit (ch), which we don't compute properly. Will open a new bug on that.
