Example 1: how to flutter multiple line text

Container(
  width: 150,
  child: Text(
    "This text is very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very long",
    overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
    maxLines: 5,

Using Ellipsis

Text(
  "This is a long text",
  overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
),

Using Fade

Text(
  "This is a long text",
  overflow: TextOverflow.fade,
  maxLines: 1,
  softWrap: false,
),

Using Clip

Text(
  "This is a long text",
  overflow: TextOverflow.clip,
  maxLines: 1,

Note:
If you are using Text inside a Row, you can put above Text inside Expanded like:
Expanded(
  child: AboveText(),
)
