I cannot determine why a line break was used instead of a space, in the string (if in fact that's the source of the problem). Patryk, do you know if this is a visual design issue or something in the string itself?

Comment 3

[Patryk Adamczyk [:patryk] UX]

From our perspective, this is not intentional, might be a coding issue instead.

Translations, no sign of line breaks

My feeling is that the width for that checkbox label is smaller than the available space.

#hidden-wifi-authentication label p {
  width: 12rem;
  bottom: 0.4rem;
  left: 3rem;
}

Fixing it to 24rem seems to fit even Greek on a single line, which is the longest one.

This lets the label use all the horizontal space available. It definitely works, not sure if that's the way this problem is supposed to be fixed.

Keon running Italian build with the fix, label for "Show Password" replaced with the Greek one.

Hi Francesco! I've added a small comment to the patch. Feedback+ by now and let's try a responsive solution! Let me know and I'll take a look to the final patch. Thanks!

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

Thanks, you're absolutely right: using a dynamic width instead of a fixed one is definitely better. 
I've updated the PR and tested it locally, it works fine.

Not sure if you want me to set again the r?, also note that I'll need someone to check-in the patch when ready.

R+ from my side. This patch is only CSS and is safe to land. We need to ensure that the text is shown properly in every language.
