Hi,

I have a kendo grid, with text column with width - 30.
data of text column is fetched from database.
If the data which is fetched from database is more than the width then it is wrapped to next line i.e. suppose if the text - code project which is exceeding width - 30 then it is shown as
code
project
but
Now I want to show it as code... in the same line

I have tried in google but I couldn't get it.
can you help me getting a solution.
Thanks in advance

width 30 is very less, choose the width which fits the column header text.

column of the width is fixed. need to work the text what we get from the database. for example it is text is karthik Bangalore then it is showing as
karthik
Bangalore
but I want to show as karthik... in the same line
