Closed 5 months ago.
I would like to add an ellipse (...) to the end of text that overflows past 2 lines. Currently I have tried the whitespace nowrap but that does it for only one line.
How can I achieve a 2 line ellipse (...)?
.details {
display: inline-flex;
/* text-align: center; */
/* display:block; */
/* display:table-cell;
vertical-align:middle; */
/* background-color: grey; */
margin-right: 5px;
/* width: 95%; */
width:340px;
height: 75px;
cursor: pointer;
text-align: left;
}
.portalTitle {
/* margin-top: 25px; */
margin: auto;
margin-left: 10px;
/* margin: auto; */
/* line-height: 70px; */
font: Arial;
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight:500;
line-height: 1.5em;
max-height: 3.2em;
overflow: hidden;
/* white-space: nowrap; */
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
.profileImg {
cursor: pointer;
max-width: 45px;
height: 45px;
border-radius: 25px;
/* margin-top: 10px; */
/* margin: auto; */
margin: auto 2px;
object-fit: cover;
}
<div class="details">
<img class="profileImg" src="images/testImg.png" />
<span class="portalTitle"> Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!</span>
</div>
</div>
You need to update your .portalTitle
class style with
margin: auto;
margin-left: 10px;
font: Arial;
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: 500;
line-height: 1.5em;
max-height: 3.2em;
overflow: hidden;
display: block;
display: -webkit-box;
max-width: 100%;
-webkit-line-clamp: 2;
-webkit-box-orient: vertical;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
Here, the below css is limiting the content to 2 lines.
display: -webkit-box;
-webkit-line-clamp: 2;
-webkit-box-orient: vertical;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
.details {
display: inline-flex;
/* text-align: center; */
/* display:block; */
/* display:table-cell;
vertical-align:middle; */
/* background-color: grey; */
margin-right: 5px;
/* width: 95%; */
width: 340px;
height: 75px;
cursor: pointer;
text-align: left;
}
.portalTitle {
margin: auto;
margin-left: 10px;
font: Arial;
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: 500;
line-height: 1.5em;
max-height: 3.2em;
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
display: -webkit-box;
-webkit-line-clamp: 2;
-webkit-box-orient: vertical;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
.profileImg {
cursor: pointer;
max-width: 45px;
height: 45px;
border-radius: 25px;
/* margin-top: 10px; */
/* margin: auto; */
margin: auto 2px;
object-fit: cover;
}
<div class="details">
<img class="profileImg" src="images/testImg.png" />
<span class="portalTitle"> Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!. Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!. Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!. Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!. Shanghai, China night sounds sounds and more more more sounds look at all those sounds!</span>
