I've got Google Pixel 6 Pro with the default launcher. I'm kind of fine with it. For whatever design "solution", this launcher trims icon/shortcut labels it considers "out of bounds" just cutting off most of the text replacing all of it with ellipsis. For example, what it considers "out of bounds":
* _Advanced Root Checker_ becomes _Advanced Root ..._
* _Air Raid Alert Map of Ukraine_ becomes _Air Raid Alert..._ (a web page shortcut added to the home screen from Firefox)
Some answers recommend absolutely a [useless way](https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/3127997?hl=en&msgid=3129330) to fix it: changing the default system-wide font size should not be used to configure the apps in general (I mean, why would changing the font size affect behavior of a particular launcher?) + increasing/decreasing the font size doesn't disable label trimming.
I'm looking for a way to either make it allow wider text labels or render the text labels at least in two rows. Any real solution would be appreciated: a Pixel Launcher fork, a module for Magisk/LSPosed/XPL-EX, whatever.
