Remove elipses in titles of all-day-events
In the week-view of Proton Calendar, the titles of all-day-events end with an elipsis (...) when they are too long to be displayed completely. But these elipses take over so much space that it gets hard to read the actual title! For example some events in my calendar look like this:
- "🧽 cl..."
- "Visit..."
- "Call..."
Instead of displaying an elipsis, Proton Calendar should display as much of the title as possible. Then these events would look like this:
- "🧽 clean"
- "Visit Gran "
- "Call Deb"
This is how it works with the month-view. Let's also mae make the week view work like this!

When a Proton Calendar all-day event name is to long to display, it abbreviates with "... ". This often takes up 50 - 60% of the available space (in the Android app in Week view, which is my default experience), making the info meaningless with no real upside. Instead: use all available space, like Google Calendar does. (And Proton does for non-all-day events.)
*Example*
I put an all-day event in my Calendar called "Theme park" (in the Android app in Week view)
Proton Calendar displays: "Th... "
Google Calendar displays "Theme".With the Google version I immediately know what it refers to, with Proton I have to click to see what it is.
Even the 'upside' of "... " isn't relevant: yes, it does show that the text is abbreviated, but the Google version does that too as the text runs right up to the edge of the appointment box, intuitively showing that the text is abbreviated.
I think this could be a very minor change to an existing feature with obvious upsides and zero downsides. Hope you could do this!
