This will be hard to describe but I'll give it a shot.

I bookmark a LOT of stuff.

Most of it goes into folders in the bookmark bar.

And I bookmark a lot of threads like these.

But when I go to check them out. the are cut off.

Example:

It will say:
Mac NN forums: What is the best way............for OSX?

I hate this, becasue I want to see the whole thread title quickly. Often I can't know which thread it is becasue of the ellipses. what can I do? thanks

Gee! He could actually be serious! OMG!

Seriously though, there isn't a way around the truncating of bookmark names that I'm aware of.

It'd sure be nice if the full name of the bookmark appeared in the tooltip...
