After update - 'The character used for Ellipsis is not available in font asset... Switching Text Overflow mode to Truncate.'

Hello!

Upgraded from unity 6000.0.34f1 to 6000.0.38f1.

Everything was fine, but at some random moment I got the messages ‘The character used for Ellipsis is not available in font asset [FONT] or any potential fallbacks. Switching Text Overflow mode to Truncate.’

And the three dots(…) were before this warning.

And everything would be all right, but why is there a forceful switching to Text Overflow mode to Truncate? I have a lot of text with Ellipsis in my project and now they are all Truncate!!!

Please remove the Text Overflow mode force switch if this warning occurs.

I’m having the same issue. so it has to do with Unity versions. i will downgrade

This is still super annoying in 6000.3.0f1

Just to add some info:
The bug changes text overflow from Ellipsis to Truncate.
It happens whenever the editor compiles scripts.
It only happens to Bold text in:
-The prefab I’m currently editing.
-Objects in the current scene.

Also, when trying to fix it:
I cannot switch back from Truncate to Ellipsis as long as the text is bold.
I have to disable bold, then switch to Ellipsis, and then re-enable bold.
