Possibly so, but it's nicer than rolling your own, which is where
things were heading. :)
before calling
TruncateThemeText, the program may as well first call
HIThemeGetWindowShape
passing in kWindowTitleTextRgn for the window region and find out
exactly
how wide the window's title bar text can be at its current dimensions.
Yes, thanks, I knew there was a way but couldn't recall it...
The program can then pass that measurement, instead of a "fudge
factor"
Right, that wasn't a great choice of words. Instead read "the
difference between a title bar's width and that portion of it alloted
to displaying the title text - which could be different in different
kinds of windows, with different title fonts, and also depends upon
which title bar widgets are present."
