text-overflow ellipsis on flex child not working [duplicate]

Answer 1

Is this what you want.?

I just put overflow:hidden;text-overflow: ellipsis; to your .child2

function toggle() {
  var el = document.querySelector('.el');
  el.textContent = el.textContent === 'short' ? 'long long long text' : 'short';
}

.wrapper {
  display: flex;
  width: 200px;
  align-content: stretch;
  padding: 5px;
  min-width: 0;
  border: 1px solid
}

.wrapper .child2 {
  flex-grow: 1;
}

.flex {
  display: flex;
  min-width: 0;
}

.el {
  white-space: nowrap;
  overflow: hidden;
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

.child1 {
  background: red;
}

.child2 {
  background: blue;
  overflow:hidden;
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

.child3 {
  background: green;
}

.wrapper>* {
  padding: 5px;
}
