Recent update of Chrome breaks white-space: nowrap
using text-overflow: ellipsis;
on a overflow: hidden
element. How to fix that without adding hard-coded width on name
class..
<h1>problem</h1>
<div class="container">
<div class="name">
<div class="firstname">
test
</div>
<div class="lastname">

The structure should not change because I reuse the .name
section somewhere else in my app.
.container {
width: 800px;
height: 80px;
display: flex;
border: solid 1px black;
margin: 10px;
}
.name {
display: flex;
}
.firstname {
width: 100px;
background-color: grey;
}
.lastname {
flex-grow: 1;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
}
.side {
flex-grow: 0;
}
.side, .firstname, .lastname {
align-self: center;
padding: 0 20px;
}

Reference - https://drafts.csswg.org/css-flexbox-1/#min-size-auto
The initial setting on flex items is min-width: auto
. So, in order for
each item to stay within the container, we need to give min-width: 0
.
Add min-width: 0;
. This is the easy workaround in your case.
that is
name {
display: flex;
min-width: 0;
}
Snippet
.container {
width: 800px;
height: 80px;
display: flex;
border: solid 1px black;
margin: 10px;
}
.name {
display: flex;
min-width: 0;
}
.firstname {
width: 100px;
background-color: grey;
}
.lastname {
flex-grow: 1;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
display: flex;
}
.side {
flex-grow: 0;
}
.side, .firstname, .lastname {
align-self: center;
padding: 0 20px;
}

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
