Hug until container is too small

Stevie3, that example only supports the wrapping, not the hug required when only one line of text

Francesco, it appears to be a current limitation of Figma, as the container can either be fill or hug only. You can use the max-width to force a wrap on a container that hugs until it reaches that max-width, however the max-width is a fixed value so it can not be set to follow the parent container size.

There is this post that is related to this same topic 

This functionality is essential!
The text should hug when short, and fill the parent container when it exceeds its width.

Figma add something like 
max-width: 100%;

As a developer trying to provide responsive components for the design team, I’m completely shocked that this isn’t supported.

This should be as simple as text defaulting to wrap… just like standard browser behavior. When the parent is smaller than the length of the text, the text wraps. That’s it. Done. Add a property to disable wrapping when you don’t want it.

Unless I’m mistaken (?), there isn’t anyway to wrap text in a responsive layout unless it, and all of its ancestors, are set to ‘fill’? This, combined with the lack of percentage-based widths, outside margins, and calc()-like functionality make it seemingly impossible to support truly responsive components.

Something as simple as positioning an icon at the end of text or expanding the height of the text when the width collapses should be essential behavior for responsive layouts. You shouldn’t be required to make a new fixed max-width variation for every breakpoint to support such basic, standard functionality. 

Likewise, this would be so handy in matching how our components work in dev. 

Please Figma make this a feature. It’s so painful having over lapping text when I need for example.

[ Price: £10.00 per month ] < I want Per Month to wrap under this. But I can only get it if FILL which makes it look odd. [ Price:             £10.00 per month ] - I want my £10.00 content next to my Price text box. 

This really is a necessary feature #upvote
