The pull request in TIMOB-13375 is interesting and someone should look at it.

Tested on 3.1.1GA, iOS simulator, this is working fine now. Resolving.

Then the API docs need to be updated: [http://docs.appcelerator.com/titanium/latest/#!/api/Titanium.UI.Label-property-ellipsize]

Writing up the ticket for the change now. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Not quite fixed. I just did a ListView with a row template, which contains a label with ellipsize:false (also width:Ti.IU.SIZE and height:Ti.IU.SIZE), and that label still gets ellipsized.

...and documentation is still not updated as of 08/16/2013 when SDK 3.1.2.GA was released.

Tested the following code

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor: 'white'});
   var label = Ti.UI.createLabel({
   	ellipsize: false,
   	text: "To be, or not to be--that is the question: \
   Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer \
   The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune \
   Or to take arms against a sea of troubles",
   	width: 100,
   	height: 100,	
   });
   win.add(label);
   win.open();

The label still gets ellipsized. Mac osx 10.9.5 Mavericks Appcelerator Studio, build: 3.4.0.201409261245 Titanium SDK, build: 3.4.1.v20141003114920 acs@1.0.18 alloy 1.5.1 install@0.1.7 npm@1.4.23 sudo@1.0.3 titanium 3.4.0 titanium-code-processor@1.1.1 Xcode6.1GM Device: iPhone 6 iOS 8.1b
