Hi folks!
I need to set priority (content resistance) to item in `Row` but cannot figure out how to do it.  For sample I have few texts in Row, but I need truncate the first one for sample, not the last
`weight`  isn’t correct way to do it
Thanks

are you avoiding weight because you don't want it to fill the full available space or for some other reason?

weight don’t do it as I need.  At least for text.

how so? I ask because people don't always find the `fill` optional parameter to `weight`, and setting it to `false` avoids filling the whole space but it does lower the element's measurement priority so that other siblings measure first.

```Row(
    modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth(),
    horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(8.dp)
) {
    Text(
        text = walletName,
        style = MaterialTheme.typography.body1,
        maxLines = 1,
        overflow = TextOverflow.Ellipsis,
    )
    Text(
        text = amount,
        modifier = Modifier
            .weight(1f, fill = true),
        style = FormularMonoTypography.body2,
        maxLines = 1,
    )
}```
May be I wrong but it’s not as priority.

set weight on the lower priority item - the `walletName` text.

Yep. It need to truncated walletName if space not enough

So you offer to put
```Modifier.weight(1f, fill = false)```
on the walletName?

<@UJBKXD0HH> Thanks a lot. It help.  You right. I didn’t consider `fill = false`  yearly
