For a project, I'm trying to use the CSS property text-overflow: ellipsis
in order to complete the following animation. However, when I'm trying to apply this property, with white-space: nowrap
and overflow: hidden
, on .card-dish__info
, the three dots don't appear and the overflowing text is hidden behind the checkmark and price.
When I tried to apply this property on .card-dish
and .card-dish__byline
, the checkmark animation is directly blocked. I also tried another advice of limiting the width
of .card-dish__info
, but it also doesn't work...
Here is my code:
.card-dish {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: white;
border-radius: 15px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
width: 340px;
overflow: hidden;
cursor: pointer;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 13px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
.card-dish__info {
display: flex;
flex-flow: column wrap;
margin: 10px 0 10px 15px;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
.card-dish__heading {
display: inline;
margin: 0;
font-family: Roboto;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold;
color: black;
}
.card-dish__byline,
.card-dish__price {
margin: 5px 0 0 0;
font-family: Roboto;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
color: black;
}
.card-dish__check {
display: flex;
}
.card-dish__price {
margin: 34px 0 5px 0;
}
.card-dish__checkmark {
background-color: #99e2d0;
border-radius: 0 15px 15px 0;
width: 60px;
margin: 0 -61px 0 15px;
transition: margin-right 1.5s;
}
.card-dish:hover .card-dish__checkmark {
margin-right: 0;
}

The problem is that the width of the .card-dish__byline
doesn't decrease in order for the text-overflow to take place. You should also add the text-overflow: ellipsis
to the .card-dish__byline
. Add this to your css:
.card-dish__byline {
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
width: 280px;
transition: width 1.5s;
}
.card-dish:hover .card-dish__byline {
width: 230px;
}
