FIX: Fix problems with Series text representation.

@@ -567,3 +567,39 @@ Bug Fixes
 - Bug in ``Series.values_counts`` with excluding ``NaN`` for categorical type ``Series`` with ``dropna=True`` (:issue:`9443`)
 - Fixed mising numeric_only option for ``DataFrame.std/var/sem`` (:issue:`9201`)
 - Support constructing ``Panel`` or ``Panel4D`` with scalar data (:issue:`8285`)
+- ``Series`` text representation disconnected from `max_rows`/`max_columns` (:issue:`7508`).
+- ``Series`` number formatting inconsistent when truncated (:issue:`8532`).
