Fit Modes​

Fit Content (default)​

Container sizes to its text content. Use when the text should take only as much space as it needs.

Open Block in Storybook

Fit Fill​

Container fills available flex space. Use inside flex layouts when the text should expand to fill remaining space. Text that runs past that space is cut at the container's edge instead of drawn over the block below, which keeps a widget's saved render tidy when it is laid out in a smaller box than the one it was measured in.

Fixed Height​

Container has a hard-coded pixel height. Use when you need a precise, known container size.
