Truncate

Truncate sets the text-overflow property only. Text will not truncate unless it is overlfowing its container, thus truncate and clip will not force truncation. They only allow you to control what happens when truncation occurs.

truncate
.truncate {
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
The spice must flow!
clip
.clip {
  text-overflow: clip;
}
The spice must flow!
