📖 How it works
The CSS text-overflow property requires three rules to work together:
overflow: hidden, white-space: nowrap (for single line), and text-overflow: ellipsis or clip.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| ellipsis | Displays an ellipsis character (…) at the truncation point |
| clip | Simply cuts off overflow text with no indicator |
