How to use ellipsis in Pega
I am trying to set an ellipsis function on a text inpt field in a big application. The ellipsis function shoult ONLY affect that section. The ellipsis function is ONLY working on the specific class and the class is a.null. I am now worried about IF more classes is null, the ellipsis function is going to affect those. The code that is working:
a.null {
display: block;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
max-width: 20ex;
}
We have also tried to create a class with a different name, and then the ellipsis func NOT working as expected.

Hi,
The visibility of the code in an application totally depends upon where you have kept it.
For example...
1) If you kept in userworkform/CSS file rule at skin level, then it is bound to affect other places also, where the class is at null.
2)To narrow down the visibility f thr code, you can apply the same at Harness Level, so that it gets applied only at the harness level. Wherever that particular harness will get called, this code will be called.
3)If you still want to narrow down the visibility, you can create a non-autogenerated section(not recommended, as it would just add one more rule), and then include this section in the current section, where you want to apply this code.
You can choose either of the above-mentioned options depending upon your requirement.
