[Bug 1365549] Re: [Dash] Centered title should be requested by scopes explicitly and limited to one line

 

I think the spec is wrong where it says that only one line should be
shown, because in the scope that shows installed apps there are quite a
few that need more than one line of title in English (eg: Dropping
Letters, System Settings), and there will be more in other languages
too.

Bug description:
  When showing overlays, the title is always centered and the attributes and subtitles are left-aligned, so it looks wrong.
  This screenshot shows the issue: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/183466031/scopes-less-attrs.png

  Saviq's suggestion to fix this is to make titles always left aligned too, and to extend the category renderer so some scopes can align to the center if needed, using something like this:
   { "title" : { "field": "title", "align": "center"}, ...}

  All categories that wish to have centered titles need to send the
  above in components, otherwise will be left-aligned.

  NOTE also that this will force just a single line of title, so
  anything that doesn't fit in one line will be elided.

  This is all according to the spec:
