SOLVED (solution at the end)
I have the following layout, I want the text SOME LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TEXT to don´t break the line and show an ellipse.
E.x.: Pangaré Figueiredo SOME LOOOOOO...
const LastHighline = (props: Props) => {
return (
<TouchableOpacity className="my-3 flex-row items-center gap-x-3">
<View className="flex-initial">
<HistorySvg />
</View>
<Text className="flex-1 overflow-hidden whitespace-nowrap overflow-ellipsis">{props.name} SOME LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TEXT</Text>
<View className="flex-shrink-0 flex-row items-center">
<HeightSvg />
<Text>{props.height}m</Text>
</View>
<View className="flex-shrink-0 flex-row items-center gap-x-2">
<WidthSvg />
<Text>{props.length}m</Text>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
);
};
Solution
Just put flex-1 in order to make the element shrink and grow when necessary, and the truncate was substituted with a property of <Text> tag named numberOfLines, set to 1 and got the expected result
check the resource here How to have Ellipsis effect on Text
<Text className="flex-1" numberOfLines={1}>{props.name} SOME LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TEXT</Text>`
EDIT
Here is a similar layout to what you're doing. Your issue is that you need to have a bounding box to container the text, and cause it to overflow.
Here is an example
section {
display: flex;
flex-direction: colmun;
gap: 20px;
width: 200px;
background: blue;
color: white;
font-weight: bold;
}
section .box {
background: red;
height: 25px;
width: 25px;
display: block;
}
p {
/* You need to limit the size of the text box */
width: 50px;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
}
/* If you want to have the second line show, wrap it in a span like this. */
.second p {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.second span {
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
<section class="first">
<div class="box"></div>
<p>Text LOOOONNNNNGGGGGGG TEXTTTTT</p>
<div class="box"></div>
<div class="box"></div>
</section>
<section class="second">
<div class="box"></div>
<p>Text <span>LOOOONNNNNGGGGGGG TEXTTTTT</span></p>
<div class="box"></div>
<div class="box"></div>
</section>
Here is a very minimal working version of text-overflow: ellipsis;
See MDN's docs for more information.
section {
background: red;
width: 250px;
}
.text-overflow h1 {
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
<section>
<h1>Hello World! LOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG TEXT</h1>
</section>
<section class="text-overflow">
<h1>Hello World! LOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG TEXT</h1>
</section>

I am trying to place my card boxes on 1 row rather than on 1 column. Can someone explain to me what is wrong with this CSS?
import "./Card.css"
class Card extends PureComponent {
render() {
return (
<div className="cardcontainer">
<div className="cardbox">
<div>{this.props.title}</div>
<div>{this.props.category}</div>
<div>{this.props.likes / this.props.dislikes}</div>
</div>
</div>
)
}
}
export default Card
.cardcontainer{
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
.cardbox{
border: 1px solid red;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
Your cardlist style needs to be applied with the parent component of the Card component.
EG you may have another component called cardList and within the render method for that you apply the cardcontainer style EG.
<div className = cardcontainer>
<Card/>
</div>
This is because in your current code you have initiated the cardcontainer style for every row. I have recoded your work in CSS and HTML so you can see what I mean. I hope this helps.
.cardcontainer{
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: nowrap;
width:1000px;
}
.cardbox{
border: 1px solid red;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
<div class="cardcontainer">
<div class="cardbox">
<div>A title</div>
<div>A CAtegory</div>
</div>
<div class="cardbox">
<div>A title</div>
<div>A CAtegory</div>
</div>
</div>

What are the differences between flex-basis and width?

Using flex for the main menu that has three boxes. The first and third do not flex, and the second grows to fill. The second box is a nested flex that has two boxes, the first does not flex and the second grows to fill. The nested flex, second box is configured to use ellipsis for overflow, but that did not work. The box expands and pushes the nested flex, but not the parent flex, beyond the parent max width. Then discovered if the second boxe has a defined width, any value, even 1px, it works as expected. Concerned and courious why that is, and if i'm doing something wrong.

there is 2 other hurtless ways you can use :

overflow:hidden;
}
or
.menu-item-2 {
flex: 1;

This question already has answers here:
How to match width of text to width of dynamically sized image/title?
(2 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have a component (Container) that contains an icon (marked with an X below), a title and a child component (Message) that contains a long message. I would like Container's width to wrap around the icon and the title so both are on one line as much as window's width allows for it.
Message component has a button that toggles display of a long text. This text should not stretch the parent Container and it should be aligned with title's width. The message content can be broken and wrapped at any point:
I used a flex-grow: 1; width: 0; style on a dummy div in Message as suggested
here to prevent it from growing. This works well on all browsers except for MS Edge, where the message content stretches the parent:
How can I fix this issue on MS Edge?
Is there alternative way using only CSS that I can prevent the message content from stretching its parent?
Style.css:
.box {
display: table;
margin: auto;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.icon {
margin-right: 10px;
}
.message {
display: flex;
}
.message > div {
flex-grow: 1;
width: 0;
word-break: break-all;
}
Container.jsx:
export const Container = () => {
return (
<div className='box'>
<div className='container'>
<div className='icon'>
X
</div>
<div className='content'>
<div className='title'>
Some title
</div>
<Message>
Long message that should not make parent wider
</Message>
</div>
</div>
</div>
);
}
Message.jsx:
export const Message = ({children}) => {
const [isExpanded, setExpanded] = React.useState(false);
const handleClick = () => setExpanded(!isExpanded);
return (
<div>
<div>
<button onClick={handleClick}>Click</button>
</div>
{isExpanded &&
<div className='message'>
<div>{children}</div>
</div>
}
</div>
);
}
Try width:0;min-width:100%; on the message container:
.box {
display: table;
margin: auto;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.icon {
margin-right: 10px;
}
message {
display:block;
width:0;
min-width:100%;
}
<div class='box'>
<div class='container'>
<div class='icon'>
X
</div>
<div class='content'>
<div class='title'>
Some title
</div>
<message>
<div>Long message that should not make parent wider</div>
</message>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Or to the div inside the message:
.box {
display: table;
margin: auto;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.icon {
margin-right: 10px;
}
message {
display:block;
}
message > div {
width:0;
min-width:100%;
}
<div class='box'>
<div class='container'>
<div class='icon'>
X
</div>
<div class='content'>
<div class='title'>
Some title
</div>
<message>
<div>Long message that should not make parent wider</div>
</message>
</div>
</div>
</div>
In this jsfiddle, I want the Author element to be aligned between the various card elements. I can't see how to stretch the element containing the details to match the variably sized elements in the same row.
The goal is to have the Author lines lining up horizontally across the rows.
.container {
display: flex;
flex-flow: row wrap;
margin: 10px;
}
.card {
width: 200px;
margin: 10px;
}
.product_detail {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: space-between;
border: 1px solid pink;
}
.detail_item {
border: 1px solid blue;
flex: 1;
}
img {
width: 100%;
}
<div class='container'>
<div class="card">
<section>
<img src="https://c.booko.info/covers/34edd12eb5c21388/v/600.jpeg" itemprop="image" size="500x750">
</section>
<section class="product_detail">
<div itemprop="name" class='detail_item'>
A Book Title
</div>
<div class="detail_item">A Subtitle might be here</div>
<div itemprop="author" class='detail_item'>Author</div>
</section>
</div>
<div class="card">

<section class="product_detail">
<div itemprop="name" class='detail_item'>
A Book Title which is much longer and takes up a few lines
</div>
<div class="detail_item">A Subtitle might be here</div>
<div itemprop="author" class='detail_item'>Author</div>
</section>
</div>
<div class="card">
<section>
<img src="https://c.booko.info/covers/34edd12eb5c21388/v/600.jpeg" itemprop="image" size="500x750">

</div>
<div class="detail_item">A Subtitle might be here</div>
<div itemprop="author" class='detail_item'>Author</div>
</section>

As I understood it, you are trying to have the Author div anchored to the bottom of each card.
Assuming I understood correctly, you were pretty close. Here's what was missing:
the .card div needed to be a flex container
the .product_detail section needed to stretch to fill its available space
the Author div needed to be anchored to the bottom
Here's the CSS that changed:
.card {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.product_detail {
flex: 1;
}
.detail_item[itemprop="author"] {
margin-top: auto;
}
Here's an updated Fiddle
Note: if you don't want the .detail_item divs to be vertically evenly distributed, you can just remove the flex: 1; property from .detail_item which would look like this.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
I am using Materializecss to create React app. I have already applied flex inside my app class. And now I want to apply flex inside main tag where buttons get fixed at bottom of main tag & above the footer.
I have tried {margin-top: auto;} , justify-content: flex-end which didn't help. The buttons always print after content class. I can set the height of the content class, but small devices render view badly and it's not fixing my problem.
JSX code:
<div className="app">
<header> <header>
<main>
<div className="box">
<div className="content"> Long text less than 100 words <div>
<div className="buttons"> <button> Button-1 </button> <button> Button-2 </button>
<div>
<main>
<footer><footer>
<div>
My css
app {
display: flex;
min-height: 100vh;
flex-direction: column;
}
main {
flex: 1 0 auto;
}
I want to stick my button above the footer. My content class has 100 words then the button should stick above the footer not rendered after the content class.
I would appreciate the help.
You haven't applied display:flex etc to the main element. If you do that the margin-top:auto will work.
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
::before,
::after {
box-sizing: inherit;
}
.app {
display: flex;
min-height: 100vh;
flex-direction: column;
background: ;
}
main {
flex: 1;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.buttons {
margin-top: auto;
}
<div class="app">
<header>header </header>
<main>
<div class="box">box</div>
<div class="content"> Long text less than 100 words </div>
<div class="buttons">
<button> Button-1 </button>
<button> Button-2 </button>
</div>
</main>
<footer>footer</footer>
</div>
