4 ways to deal with overflowing text

[@felixcornelissen89]

Another good option is to add the ­ character where you would like the word to break. In this case you could have awe­some. It adds a hyphen if the word doesn't fit, but otherwise it's invisible

woow!

[@aram5642]

Equiv of (word break opportunity).

[@jshstuff]

That’s so cool

[@dripcaraybbx]

But then you're coupling markup with presentation. We shouldn't have to pollute the content like this to account for or workaround limitations in the UI.

[@felixcornelissen89]

@@dripcaraybbx I get your point but it's a trade-off imho. It would be better if the browser understood the language well enough to make the decision where to break the word on it's own, but we're not there yet. In the mean time, you can help things along by giving the browser suggestions. You're saying: I don't know what the presentation will be exactly, but if you ever need to break this word, this is where to do it.

This problem occurs many times in my projects and i don't how, but somehow Kevin always manage to predict what we need and what's most useful for us one by one.I really appreciate these super juicy knowledge you are sharing with us Kevin. You are filling that 20% knowledge gap which makes the difference between an intermediate, advance and Professional developers.

[@TheElkster]

Really great to see 'all' the options available! Thanks, Kevin!

[@gwemula]

That last bit about @container explains what container queries is better than some other videos I’ve seen on KZbin.

[@rproctor83]

Can't wait for container stuff to be more supported, it is like a dream come true.

[@brainheap]

i just know CSS is awesome cause you are awesome without your valuable videos, i can't find out the beauty of CSS

[@suhaybjirde]

i feel excited while watching your videos and get some thing i didn't know

[@PhilLesh69]

I know this is a JavaScript solution, but I had one project where I finally gave up trying to deal with word wrapping on wildly varying length of text in some headings that I wrote a javascript function and attached a listener to page load that calculated the height of the element and if it was 2 times the line height it would reduce the font size by a percentage and recalculate until the element height was equal to or less than the line height. It was a little clumsy since a page would load with a heading that occupied more than one line and then users could see the heading change sizes really quickly and realign the element flow accordingly. So it was probably bad for page speed and other seo metrics. But it fixed that immediate problem at least.

[@makingtheweb6620]

Perhaps you should make an algorithm of your choice or so a poll on what improvements would be the easy way for ways to make it much easier to make a website/s. The whole CSS eco system seems very un-human-friendly and overly complicated. I'm sure you have some great ideas on ways to make the job much straight down.

[@rkrupon]

you this video is very effective for beginner. I am speaking from Bangladesh.❤

[@DaBigin]

Hey Kevin, I couldn't get this to post in your KZbin ideas section. Here recently I was trying to answer a question on how to set a margin on a item in a navbar that uses bootstrap classes, but when I got to looking at the documentation I got confused. I was wondering if you could make a video on the topic. I'm sure people n would want to watch it. Thanks again for the b work you do. It's appreciated.

[@vi_shw]

your video pop-up when I want solution for my project .

[@aram5642]

White spacing , word break... this is one of the things I always have to look up. And Chrome, please we are waiting for cq!

[@KevinPowell]

They are in Chrome :D We're just waiting for Firefox now, and it's about to go into Nightly from what I understand!

I really Helpfull for your video,Thank you soo Much

[@illiayehorov5008]

very cool techniques. i watch your videos all the time and admire the solution. Unfortunately, just that I don't understand English very well ))) Because I am from Ukraine. But I try to learn English !) Thanks for the video!

[@Coachnereus]

i currently have this problem in a project, Thanks

[@ShahnewazTameem]

Great and informative

[@kevinwaag9976]

beautiful, simple! keep it up ;)

[@makingtheweb6620]

Another good video. Would shrinking font size be ok on mobile? Can you do more with container queries? Can It be used as an Articles container.

[@n_mckean]

Careful with some of those. For WCAG 2,1 the user must be able to achieve 200% bigger font sizes without loss. Clamp can torpedo that as just one example.

[@KevinPowell]

If font-sizes are set in rem (and the middle value in the clamp() includes a + rem value), it shouldn't cause any issues... I think 🤔

[@n_mckean]

@@KevinPowell there's some lovely work by Adrian Roselli on this is you care to deep-dive. Just thought I'd add the note for others because there are definite cases where issues exist.

[@KevinPowell]

@@n_mckean I'll definitely look into it 👍

[@johanstam3602]

Hi Kevin! Can you do a short/video on how to create a flexbox container (with a max width and content centered) where a flex item (image) bleeds to the right of the viewport?

Why is hyphen a problem? I use hyphen: auto; and it seems really usefull. I am just looking for a way to avoid a line before an email (that i dont wanna break) to be too spaced out (due to justified content)

css: container-type is yet not supported by Firefox........

[@KevinPowell]

I know, I mentioned that browser support isn't great before going into how it works, and they're about to put it into Firefox Nightly, so it shouldn't be *too* much longer

[@mistervallus185]

wouldve been if you showed how to make the word cut of with a ... eg: This is too lo...
