In web design, one method for displaying text that does not fit on a single line due to space limitations in an easy-to-read manner is to automatically abbreviate the text using the three-point leader “…”. This method is especially useful in situations where space is limited, such as in responsive or card-type designs.
To apply this effect, use the following CSS
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
white-space: nowrap;overflow: hidden; ” hides the content of an element if it extends outside the box.
text-overflow: ellipsis; ” abbreviates with a three-point leader when text extends beyond the element’s box.
white-space: nowrap; ” forces text to fit on a single line.
This combination can be used to achieve the effect that text exceeding one line is automatically abbreviated with a “…” at the end.
