ℹ️ If textOverflow is not specified at all, a text label can become wider than the width if needed to display the text value.
ℹ️ Setting textOverflow to an empty string textOverflow: "" will cause the item to be truncated if necessary without any characters displayed
ℹ️ Otherwise, setting textOverflow to one or more characters will truncate the value if necessary and display those characters at the end. i.e. textOverflow: ...
