Bug Description

I have just upgraded to Unity 5.4 and I have discovered that some filter items are missing in the Dash.
I have attached a screenshot of the Dash with the Documents Lens opened. Here you can see that the Size filter is not present: instead of the different sizes, we have only some dashes.
Same thing happens with the Music Lens where the Decade filter is not present: instead of the years (50, 60, 70, etc.), you have only some dashes.

Maybe the same problem, but it looks like text has a fixed width in unity and unity-2d too: anything wider than the English text will be truncated, which is quite ugly:

The following pics are from Unity 5.6 in Finnish:

Everything else except "All" button which shows up as "..." seem to be fixed in Unity 5.8.

In Finnish "All" is 5 letters, "Kaikki": https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/unity/+pots/unity/fi/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=kaikki

Please confirm in other languages.

I can confirm what stated by @Jiri Grönroos.

After the last updates of today, I have all the Dash items correctly displayed now.
Only the "All" button is displayed as "..." (three dots). My language is Italian and it should be displayed as "Tutto" (5 letters).

It also affects korean translation. I'm part of the Korean l10n team, but decreasing the length of the words are virtually hard. The best solution would be to change the size of button -which should be done by Unity devs.
