xamarin forms label html texttype with linebreakmode tailtrunctaed unexcpected behavior

Question

HELLO EVERYONE, when i use the LineBreakMode="TailTruncation" the label works fine and cut the end adding ellipsize(...) like in the image

    <StackLayout VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="CenterAndExpand">  
        <Label TextType="Text" LineBreakMode="TailTruncation" MaxLines="2" FontSize="38">  
            Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.</Label>  
    </StackLayout>  

but when i change the texttype to html the behavior of line break mode change like the image 2

my question is: how to prevent this behavior while using html texttype

    <StackLayout VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="CenterAndExpand">  
        <Label TextType="Html" LineBreakMode="TailTruncation" MaxLines="2" FontSize="38">  
            Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.</Label>  
    </StackLayout>

Hi imaddiraa-4704,

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

It is indeed an existing issue, Html's LineBreakMode does not work properly.

This issue has been submitted on Github: Line break mode not applying on Html Labels. And it has been added to To do list here.

Thank you for your feedback.

Regards,
Kyle
