Hi Ramakrishna,
Your requirement can be achieved by using "pxTextAbridge" control where you can give max length as a parameter(Max length after which the text will be truncated).

This was very helpful, thank you!
The only thing to note is that the three dots (...) are counted as characters so if you want, for example to limit your text to 36 chars you have to set the max to 39.

It works for small text, if we would want to display truncated text like here, and on hover (action tab) to have show smart info (a section), its not happening, any other alternative in Pega 8.3
