Hello All, I am looking at Textfields and I dont see a way to set Overflow for Text. Is there a way we set overflow with type ellipse.

[Ale Stamato]

Overflow is not supported for TextField.
Also textfield should be able to scroll horizontally on overflow.
What is your usecase?

[manju reddy]

Basically when we have trailing Icons we need to show ellipse for long text

[Chrimaeon]

For static text there is the Text() composable which has overflow handling

[manju reddy]

hmm I see for Text(), but our usecase is for Edittext aka TextField

[Chrimaeon]

No, that is not possible and from an UX perspective also not suitable. you are editing the text so it’s either multiline or scrolls while you are typing.
