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?

[Yuri Drigin]

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

[Adam Powell]

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.

[Yuri Drigin]

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.

[Adam Powell]

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

[Yuri Drigin]

+ from amount - only first symbol

[Adam Powell]

unweighted children measure first

[Yuri Drigin]

Yep. It need to truncated walletName if space not enough

[Yuri Drigin]

So you offer to put

Modifier.weight(1f, fill = false)

on the walletName?

[Yuri Drigin]

Let me check

@Adam Powell Thanks a lot. It help. You right. I didn’t consider fill = false yearly
