Topic: DataTable clip additional text in cell with an ellipsis

NitinMistry free asked 5 years ago


Expected behavior DataTable cell should crop extra text and display an ellipsis (...) after max 2 lines of text.

Actual behavior DataTable cell shows all of the text by expanding vertically. This makes the entire table look bad.

Thanks Mateusz for your quick revert. I actually figured the solution...

td {
    max-width: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
    white-space: nowrap;
}

Hi NitinMistry,

At this moment it isn't possible but I think it's very good idea. Than you for your post.

Best,
