[Bug 628159] Re: Some ubiquity slideshow titles go (smaller) to a new line

 

Yep, that's by design. The text shrinks because we don't want it filling
more lines (and it looks kind of ugly to have big text over many lines).

This is happening with the new design as well, though to a lesser extent because the titles have more horizontal space. The second line is squeezed a little closer to the first line, too.
You can preview that here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~dylanmccall/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/preview-maverick/

For the time being, we can't do much about the offending strings; the
slideshow you see is for Lucid. We can definitely work on this for
Maverick if it's important. Probably the best way is to leave a note
with the respective translation teams to let them know when their
strings are a bit too long. They may be able to shorten them.
