Usage

​
Single-line text

Text("This is a very long piece of text that will be truncated")
    .lineLimit(1)

​
Two-line description

Text("A longer description that may wrap to a second line but will truncate after that with an ellipsis at the end.")
    .lineLimit(2)

​
Combined with minimum scale factor

Allow text to shrink before truncating. 
Text("Shrink then truncate")
    .lineLimit(1)
    .minimumScaleFactor(0.5)

Notes

  • When text exceeds the line limit, it is truncated with an ellipsis (...) at the end.
  • Passing undefined or omitting the argument removes any previously set line limit, allowing unlimited lines.
